MU considers to recruit Crystal Palace's midfielder Adam Wharton for the rest of the 2025 summer market after unable to own Brighton's Carlos Baleba.
The British star is currently the outstanding talent of Crystal Palace in particular and English football in general. The 21 -year -old has an impressive debut for England and has made an important contribution to helping Palace win the FA Cup last season. Latest, Wharton and Palace win the Super Cup 2025.
With the ability to launch excellent attacks and impressive pressing ability, Wharton often has breakthrough passes and creates dangerous opportunities for teammates. He is the creative midfielder, maybe the future of MU if combined with Kobbie Mainoo in the middle.
At this time, Palace valued Wharton at £ 70 million. However, the possibility of Palace selling Wharton depends on whether the team can keep other stars like Marc Guehi and Eberechi Eze. If the aforementioned duo goes away in the summer of 2025, the possibility of Palace will find a way to keep Wharton until the summer of the year after the team no longer has time to find a replacement.
In addition to Wharton, MU is also interested in midfielder Morten Hjulmand, former student of Amorim at Sporting. The fee of this deal is about £ 50 million. The Wharton or Hjulmand option is the B and C choice of MU after they cannot bring Carlo BaleBa.
The Red Devils abandoned the BaleBa deal because the fee could be up to £ 120 million. Although BaleBa really wanted to come to Old Trafford, Brighton's not accepting negotiations made MU forced to withdraw.
