The New Pirlo at the Top of Real Madrid's Priorities

Friday 22-08-2025
According to AS newspaper, Real Madrid is studying the signing of Adam Wharton, a 21-year-old star from Crystal Palace, to be the creative mind in midfield after the departure of Kroos and Modric.

Wharton is nicknamed 'Blackburn Pirlo' due to his style of controlling the game and creating attacks, and he is under contract until 2029, with a departure from Palace expected to be no less than 80 million euros.

The management of the royal club will not move this summer to sign the young player unless a big sale occurs, such as the transfer of Rodrygo, who is attracting interest from Manchester City and several other clubs.

The newspaper concluded that the young player is also attracting interest from Manchester United and Liverpool, while Real Madrid sees him as the ideal option to lead the midfield in the long term.
