SIMON JONES: Crystal Palace are in talks with Blackburn Rovers over a move for midfielder Adam Wharton.
The England U20 international has been followed by a number of Premier League clubs over the past two seasons with Newcastle United, Everton and Tottenham scouts regular watchers at Ewood Park.
'He can do things that nobody sees before,' said Blackburn manager Jon Dahl Tomasson. 'He can play under pressure, one touch, and has great vision.'

Benzema is 'looking at potential short-term solutions' to Al-Ittihad situation
We've heard plenty about Karim Benzema's situation at Al-Ittihad in the last few days, amid reports that things are souring for the former French international in the Saudi Pro League.
Further reports emerged on Wednesday claiming that the player himself was ruling out any interest in a move away, but French football expert Jonathan Johnson claims that might not be the case.

Some good news for Fulham fans - Tosin Adarabioyo's agent has poured cold water over claims his client wants to see out the rest of his deal and leave for free.
The centre back's contract is up this summer, and after impressing for the west Londoners since their return to the top-flight, he has unsurprisingly drawn plenty of admirers.
The former Man City star has not long left to renegotiate terms if he does want to stay on at Craven Cottage, though...
Sir Jim Ratcliffe keen to invest in British players
Manchester United are looking to tie Scott McTominay down to a new longer-term contract, according to a report.

Watford sign Emmanuel Dennis
Emmanuel Dennis has returned to Watford on loan with reports that he has taken a 70 per cent pay cut to help the Hornets.
He scored ten goals in 37 appearances for the side before joining Nottingham Forest in the summer of 2022 - where he has struggled to get regular playing time.
He had been on loan at Istanbul Basaksehir before Forest terminated his loan deal earlier this week.
Pressure grows on United to sign a striker as Martial is ruled out
Manchester United face a late transfer scramble after Anthony Martial was ruled out of action for 10 weeks after undergoing surgery on a groin injury - meaning that he could have played his last game for the club.
The Red Devils have been linked with short-term moves for both Karim Benzema and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting during the January window.
However, there is just a week to go until the transfer window shuts - so the Red Devils need to hurry if they want to make up for Martial's absence.
