Adam Wharton has denied recent rumors about a potential transfer, saying he has "never even thought about a different club" while still under contract with Crystal Palace. The 22-year-old joined the club in 2024 from Blackburn Rovers for a fee of £18 million and has made 99 appearances, scoring one goal and providing 12 assists across all competitions during his two-and-a-half-year spell at the club. Wharton played a crucial role in Crystal Palace's recent successes, including their victories in the FA Cup, the Europa Conference League, and the Community Shield, all achieved under former manager Oliver Glasner. Despite his contributions, speculation has emerged about his future, with reports suggesting that both Manchester United and Chelsea have shown interest in the midfielder. However, Manchester United reportedly shifted their focus this summer to other midfield signings, bringing in players like Carlos Baleba, Youri Tielemans, and Andrey Santos. Meanwhile, Chelsea decided not to pursue Wharton ahead of their 2026/27 season, having already signed Morgan Rogers, Valentin Barco, and Jordan Henderson to bolster their squad. Wharton has emphasized that his attention remains on Crystal Palace, stating he was "always here training" and looking forward to the new season under manager Pierre Sage. He noted that he still has three years left on his contract and would "take it week by week." The club, which qualified for the Europa League after winning the FA Cup two seasons ago, was demoted to the Europa Conference League due to breaches of UEFA's multi-club ownership rules. After winning the Europa Conference League, Crystal Palace is now targeting success in the Europa League under Sage. Wharton expressed excitement about the club's upcoming European campaign, saying the team is eager to embrace the challenge and aim for success in the competition. His commitment to the club and his focus on the season ahead suggest that he is determined to continue contributing to Crystal Palace's progress.
