Adam Wharton

Recent reports from early 2026 suggest a wide range of potential fees, with some Spanish outlets mentioning figures as high as €100 million, while UK sources have cited valuations from €70 million up to €94 million (£80m). A recurring rumour is a 'gentlemen's agreement' for a transfer at a lower price, reportedly between €70-76 million (£60-65m). Throughout late 2025, Crystal Palace's asking price was consistently reported at around €94 million (£80m), though some outlier reports mentioned valuations of over €115 million. Earlier reports from late 2024 linked Arsenal with a move in the €55-65 million range. Transfermarkt's valuation was noted at €45 million in October 2025.

Our valuation for Adam Wharton is driven by a consistently reported informal 'gentlemen's agreement' that would permit a transfer to a Champions League club for approximately €70-76 million. This is balanced against Crystal Palace's frequently cited asking price of around €94 million (£80m), a figure supported by the intense and widespread interest from numerous top clubs. Our estimate reflects a probable compromise fee resulting from a competitive bidding situation.
