The 22-year-old defensive midfielder is attracting attention from some of the country&#8217;s biggest clubs.<\/p>\n<p>His contract at Selhurst Park runs until the summer of 2029, but he could move this summer. Despite his poor form this season, interest in his services remains. The Eagles are concerned about his form as they believe interest from other top clubs may have changed his focus.<\/p>\n<p>Crystal Palace want to keep him beyond this season and are working on a possible extension to his contract. However, there is a gentleman&#8217;s agreement that would allow him to join the Champions League club for between \u00a360m and \u00a365m if a new deal cannot be agreed.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Premier_League_duo_vie_for_Wharton\"><\/span>Premier League duo vie for Wharton<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Crystal Palace&#8217;s Adam Wharton reacts after defeat to Sunderland (Photo by George Wood\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Liverpool and Manchester United are the main candidates to sign him.
