Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner won't take any risks with Adam Wharton as the midfielder eases his way back into action.

Wharton, 21, was a revelation at Selhurst Park after joining last February, taking to life in the Premier League seamlessly following his £22.5million move from Championship side Blackburn.

So impressive was Wharton's form that he forced his name into former England boss Gareth Southgate's plans ahead of the Euros, making his debut against Bosnia and Herzegovina last June before being named in his final squad for last summer's tournament in Germany.
