Cole Palmer’s 38 objectives and 21 assists in 67 appearances since shifting to Chelsea from Manchester Metropolis in 2023 have him firmly established as one of many Premier League’s finest gamers at simply 22 yr previous.
Add in that there is nonetheless one other eight and a half years left on Palmer’s contract at Stamford Bridge, we’re unsure they’ll be in any rush to dump their star participant to a Premier League rival.
However that is not stopped Wes Brown from suggesting that his former membership Manchester United ought to cellphone Chelsea as much as ask if he could be obtainable anyway, simply in case each single individual on the membership occurs to have lapsed right into a state of mass delirium and are glad to sanction the transfer.
Wes Brown: Manchester United ought to signal Cole Palmer and there is completely no points with that plan in anyway
Talking to The Sports Daily, Brown mentioned: “Fortunately for Manchester United, they nonetheless have the star energy to have the ability to tempt high gamers like Cole Palmer to the membership.”
Ah, sure, United’s latest switch historical past is an absolute litany of high-profile gamers on the peak of their powers from Premier League rivals. Who was the final one once more? Robin van Persie in 2012, in all probability? We know Palmer’s a boyhood Manchester United fan, however we’re unsure any 22 yr previous realistically sees them as a much bigger membership than Chelsea lately.
Brown went on: “Chelsea have achieved so properly to develop Palmer after taking a small danger in signing him and have a look at how good he’s as a participant at such a younger age.”
In all probability United ought to look to do some scouting and attempt to do the identical factor, we reckon, reasonably than simply going straight in on the nine-figure price it could absolutely price to signal a participant ranked at no.3 in FourFourTwo’s list of the best attacking midfielders in the world right now.
And again to Brown: “I might like to see him at United however he’d already price some huge cash.
“He’s a participant that each one one of the best groups on the earth shall be taking a look at simply in case there may be any probability of signing him.
“If United had any probability in any respect then they might snap your hand off, they need to all the time be searching for one of the best younger gamers on the earth.”
Simply chuck Lamine Yamal and Jude Bellingham on the wishlist too, why not. We’re positive they’d be delighted to drop the whole lot to hitch a group at the moment sitting thirteenth within the Premier League.
