Real Madrid vs Liverpool for £60m EPL Star: ‘New Kroos’
Xabi Alonso Eyeing New Midfielder for Real Madrid
With Xabi Alonso set to take charge at Real Madrid, the club is preparing for a new era with potential summer signings. One key area being looked at is the midfield, where Alonso, a former midfielder himself, is considering making changes.
Potential Departures in Real Madrid Midfield
Luka Modric’s future at Real Madrid is uncertain, and if he decides against renewing his contract, the club will need to fill the void left by Toni Kroos’ departure in 2024. This has led Alonso to consider strengthening the midfield.
Real Madrid’s Interest in Adam Wharton
One player who has caught Real Madrid’s attention is Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton. Known for his mature and composed performances, Wharton has drawn comparisons to Kroos for his ability to control the game and create chances.
New England boss Thomas Tuchel has praised Wharton’s confidence and drive to improve, making him an attractive prospect for Real Madrid.
Palace’s Stance on Wharton’s Future
Despite Real Madrid’s interest, Crystal Palace holds all the cards as Wharton is under contract until 2029. The Eagles could demand around £60m for the talented midfielder, showcasing their reluctance to let him go easily.
With young talents like Jude Bellingham playing a role in potential transfers to Real Madrid, Wharton’s ambitions may lead him to consider a move to the Spanish giants if he decides to leave the Premier League.
