Wharton was the best player on show in the 1-1 Premier League draw with Nottingham Forest
www.independent.co.ukHere’s the latest on Adam Wharton’s injury status.
- The most recent reports indicate Adam Wharton was sidelined with an adductor/groin-related issue, with timelines varying around a few weeks in 2025, and tighter recovery windows around international breaks. These updates suggested a return target near the end of September 2025 in several outlets.[1][2]
- In 2026 there were more positive updates suggesting a possible return for upcoming fixtures, with managers indicating the issue was precautionary and that Wharton could resume training shortly after the break, potentially returning for high-profile league games.
