Crystal Palace's £18.5m Bid for Adam Wharton Rejected by Blackburn Rovers
Blackburn seeks at least £20m for the 19-year-old midfielder, wants to keep him on loan for the rest of the season.
- Crystal Palace has made a bid for Blackburn Rovers' midfielder Adam Wharton, but the £18.5m offer was rejected.
- Blackburn Rovers is seeking at least £20m for the 19-year-old player and wants to keep him on loan for the rest of the season.
- Wharton, an England Under-20 international, has played 26 times in the Championship and established himself as a key player at Blackburn.
- Crystal Palace is keen to sign Wharton this month as they attempt to halt their slide down the table, having won just one game in their last 10.
- Crystal Palace is also exploring the striker market and a bid for right-back Daniel Munoz was rejected earlier this week by Belgian side Genk.
