Chelsea Super Star Cole Palmer has Left Chelsea to join Manchester United this evening-Palmer is not entirely happy with life in London and WANTS Manchester United
According to Sky Sports citing the Daily Express, Cole Palmer might be open to moving back to Manchester to play for Manchester United, with reports suggesting he’s experiencing homesickness while living in London.
The 23-year-old Wythenshawe native and lifelong United supporter came through Manchester City’s academy system before transferring to Chelsea in 2023 for £45 million—a fee that now appears remarkably low given his subsequent performances.
Palmer quickly became one of the world’s premier attacking midfielders. During his first Premier League season with Chelsea, he impressed with 22 goals and 11 assists across 33 games.
Since joining the club two-and-a-half years ago, he’s contributed 48 goals and 29 assists in 110 appearances across all competitions, which includes a standout performance in last summer’s Club World Cup final—scoring twice and providing an assist against Paris Saint-Germain, who had won the Champions League.
However, Chelsea would find it nearly impossible to consider selling such a prized player to a direct Premier League competitor like United.
Despite United fans’ likely enthusiasm about acquiring someone of Palmer’s caliber—even with his City background—completing such a transfer would prove extremely difficult without Palmer actively requesting it, particularly given Chelsea’s determination to retain him.
The England international, who has earned 12 caps, is tied to Chelsea through 2033 and carries a market valuation of £104 million according to Transfermarkt.
