Adam Wharton has no plans to leave Crystal Palace this January despite growing interest from the Premier League giants, according to reports.
Wharton proved to be a revelation in the second half of last season following his January move from Blackburn Rovers.

The midfielder’s form was such that he even earned a place in England’s Euro 2024 squad, although he remained an unused substitute as the Three Lions reached the final.
Wharton hasn’t hit the same heights this season and is currently sidelined with a groin injury.
Still, at 20 years old, Wharton has his best years ahead of him and is clearly a player with an extremely high ceiling.
Crystal Palace are getting a big boost for Adam Wharton’s future
Manchester City and Liverpool have been heavily linked with Wharton recently. as did Arsenal with Mikel Arteta a big fan.
However, according to TBRAccording to his most recent report, any potential suitors may have to wait until the summer at the earliest to sign Wharton.
It is understood the talented midfielder is ‘in no rush’ to leave Selhurst Park, relishing his regular place in the Premier League starting line-up.
Keeping Wharton would be a huge boost for Oliver Glasner as he struggles to land Crystal Palace away from the relegation zone.
The Eagles are currently 17th but look to have turned the corner, with their 1-0 win away to Ipswich on Tuesday meaning they have lost just one of their last seven in all competitions.
Next up is Manchester City at home before traveling to rivals Brighton, with Glasner hoping to have Wharton back in action for the latter.
“If everything goes as planned, he will have his first training session with us after the Ipswich game (which Crystal Palace won 1-0 on Tuesday night),” Glasner said.
“Maybe then Brighton will be possible for him.”
