The outlet has not given a specific price. But it is believed that Palace will not let the 20-year-old midfielder leave easily. And are prepared to set a high price to fend off Manchester City.
The key factor is whether the Citizens are ready to spend a large sum of money. And with a contract that runs until mid-2029, Palace have the upper hand in the negotiations.
Although City may resort to approaching the player’s agent to convince Wharton to make a move. Palace are prepared to follow the same approach they took when they retained Marc Guehi and Eberechi Eze.
Man City fans are ecstatic that manager Pep Guardiola has signed up for the next year at least. And are now looking forward to the future. Club chiefs are doing the same thing and are evaluating the next crop of players to come into the Etihad and help them maintain their domestic dominance.
