Cole Palmer handed improved NINE-YEAR contract by Chelsea after outstanding debut Premier League season at Stamford Bridge

Premier League

Leicester

Palmer joined Chelsea from Manchester City last summer, penning an initial eight-year deal with the west London club. Following a debut campaign which saw him score 25 goals and provide 15 assists in 45 appearances, the Blues have added an extra two years to the 22-year-old's contract, which now runs until 2033.

WHAT HAPPENED?

"I’m delighted to sign this new deal," Palmer said. "I achieved a lot in my first season here and hopefully I can continue to experience great things at this club, both on a personal level and in terms of bringing success and trophies to Chelsea."

WHAT PALMER SAID

Chelsea's decision to spend up to £42.5 million ($54m) was considered something of a risk considering he had only made 19 Premier League appearances for Man City. But he silenced any doubters with a sublime 2023-24 season in which he <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/chelsea-player-of-the-season-2023-24-power-rankings/bltacacae7b151748b1" target="_blank">regularly put Mauricio Pochettino's team on his back</a>, culminating in him <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/cole-palmer-premier-league-young-player-of-the-season-chelsea/blt4597298345c786bc" target="_blank">winning the Premier League Young Player of the Season award</a>.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

It's a very good time to be Palmer right now. Fresh off a Euro 2024 campaign in which he frequently made an impact from off the bench for England - including scoring in the final against Spain - he's also <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/erling-haaland-pfa-player-of-the-year-award-man-city-phil-foden-rodri-arsenal-martin-odegaard-chelsea-cole-palmer/blt68a5a463c788e292" target="_blank">up for the Men's PFA Players' Player of the Year award</a>.

DID YOU KNOW?

Enzo Maresca will struggle to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/chelsea-confirm-54m-pedro-neto-transfer-portuguese-winger-joins-ever-expanding-squad-stamford-bridge/bltc6721655c309fc2f" target="_blank">fit all of Chelsea's attacking players into his line-up</a> when the new season gets underway, but Palmer's place in the team is guaranteed. First up is a meeting with his former club City at Stamford Bridge on August 18.
