Chelsea Are Hoping To Land This Crystal Palace Midfielder: What Will He Add To Rosenior’s Side? In a recent report on Substack , journalist Simon Phillips claimed that Chelsea are hoping to land Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton. It has been mentioned that the Blues are eyeing a move to bring the English talent to Stamford Bridge in the summer transfer window.

Wharton’s Impressive Form In English Football Wharton is having a solid campaign at the London club as he has produced a handful of impressive displays for them at the centre of the park. The 22-year-old has secured seven assists in 41 matches for Crystal Palace this season across various competitions. The English sensation has proven his worth as a reliable midfielder in the Premier League.

Thus, it is no wonder that Chelsea are showing interest in recruiting him this off-season. His current deal at Selhurst Park will run out in the summer of 2029, which could make it difficult for the Blues to sign him on a cut-price deal later this year. LONDON, ENGLAND – MARCH 27: Adam Wharton of England controls the ball during the international friendly match between England and Uruguay at Wembley Stadium on March 27, 2026 in London, England.

Wharton is a good tackler of the ball and can time his challenges well to secure the ball back for his team inside his half. He doesn’t mind clearing the danger when the opposition are on the front foot and is a tidy passer as well.
