Adam Wharton has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Tottenham, with the Premier League side said to be eyeing a move for the Crystal Palace midfielder. Speculation is gathering pace as the club looks to bolster its squad ahead of a crucial second half of the season. While Newcastle, Liverpool and Chelsea have shown interest, Tottenham currently lead the race - though the situation could evolve if a deal drags on. So far this season, Tottenham are steady at both ends (1.86 goals scored per game, 0.71 goals conceded per game). The role for Adam Wharton would be to keep that balance while lifting performances across the pitch. Crystal Palace have also been linked with Ruben Vargas while Tottenham are reportedly monitoring Oihan Sancet, Ruben Neves and Morten Hjulmand. Want to see how the story develops?
