Currently, Crystal Palace is nurturing a wealth of young talent, with standouts like Eberechi Eze and Michael Olise.
Yet, it’s another rising star that has caught Bayern Munich’s attention.
Adam Wharton, the energetic young midfielder from Crystal Palace, is making waves in the soccer community, with The Mirror hinting at a possible £60 million move to Bayern Munich come summer.
At the youthful age of 20, Wharton has become a fixture in Palace’s lineup, impressing in 15 straight games and adding three assists to his credit.

Wharton’s swift ascent has captured the interest of Europe’s elite clubs. His recent performance, marked by a decisive assist in a key win over Wolves, showcases his advanced playmaking skills and poise on the pitch, despite his young age.
Wharton’s prowess was on full display during Palace’s 4-0 victory over Manchester United at Selhurst Park, where he consistently created opportunities and disrupted opposing plays.Bayern Muni
