Liverpool are prepared to go head-to-head with Manchester United to sign Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton, according to Fichajes.
The Englishman has developed into a quality defensive midfielder at the Eagles. He has been touted to pursue a bigger challenge elsewhere.
Manchester United have been monitoring his progress over the past year and they consider him as a top target alongside Brighton's Carlos Baleba.
Amidst this, Fichajes claim that Liverpool have joined the pursuit of the talented midfielder and could make an approach of their own for him.
Wharton has no plans to push for an exit from the FA Cup holders, but there is a gentleman's agreement to sell him for the right price next summer.
The Eagles recently sanctioned the sale of Eberechi Eze to Arsenal for £67 million, and could demand a similar fee for Wharton's departure.
Liverpool have the financial firepower to compete with the Red Devils. Wharton could make the final decision on whom to join next.
