Transfer: Manchester City’s Palmer on Chelsea radar

Published

on

Chelsea have shown keen interest in acquiring the services of Manchester City’s rising talent, Cole Palmer, in a bid to reinforce their offensive lineup before the transfer window closes.

Football transfer authority Fabrizio Romano has reported that Manchester City is willing to consider releasing the young player, but only for a substantial sum of £45 million.

The 21-year-old prospect has expressed his desire to join Chelsea, and preliminary discussions have taken place between his representatives and the club.

Chelsea currently finds itself with several key attacking players sidelined due to injuries, including Mykhailo Mudryk, Christopher Nkunku, Armando Broja, and Carney Chukwuemeka.

Having initially joined Manchester City during his teenage years, Palmer made his debut for the first team in a triumphant 3-0 victory over Burnley in 2020.
