Newcastle United have joined the list of clubs monitoring Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton, according to TEAMtalk.
The report says Newcastle could try to sign the 22-year-old in 2027, although any move would depend on Crystal Palace indicating that they are prepared to enter negotiations. A potential transfer could be worth about 87m euros.
Wharton has emerged as a player attracting interest from several leading clubs, with Newcastle now reported to be the latest side to consider a move for the England midfielder. TEAMtalk says the Magpies are ready to become more active if Crystal Palace make it clear that discussions over the player’s future would be possible.
There is no suggestion in the report that formal negotiations have begun or that a transfer has been agreed. Instead, Newcastle’s interest is described as part of a wider race for Wharton, with the club potentially looking towards a move in 2027.
Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United have previously been linked with the midfielder. Atletico are also reported to have shown interest, alongside other unnamed clubs.
The growing list of suitors could strengthen Crystal Palace’s position should they decide to consider offers for Wharton. The possible 87m-euro valuation would make any deal a significant one, although the reported figure remains an estimate and there is no indication that an agreement has been reached.
Wharton has made four appearances for Crystal Palace in all competitions this season. He has not recorded a goal or an assist in those matches.
For now, the midfielder remains a Crystal Palace player, with Newcastle’s reported interest focused on the possibility of a future approach rather than an immediate transfer. Any decision by the Eagles to open talks would be central to whether the Magpies pursue the deal.
Wharton joined Crystal Palace’s senior set-up after developing into a highly regarded midfielder, and his name has continued to feature in reports linking him with clubs in England and abroad. The latest report adds Newcastle to that group and places a possible move in 2027, subject to Crystal Palace’s willingness to negotiate.
