DO: Cole Palmer commits future to Chelsea by signing 2 year contract extension

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Cole Palmer commits future to Chelsea by signing 2 year contract extension. 22 y/o England attacker already tied down until 2031; terms now through to June 2033. Rewards brilliant debut season after joining from Manchester City.

Palmer’s new terms are a reward after a hugely successful first season at Stamford Bridge, in which he registered 25 goals and 15 assists in 45 appearances across all competitions.

Chelsea signed Palmer from Manchester City last summer for an initial fee of £40million with an additional £2.5m due in potential add-ons. The England international signed a seven-year contract with the option of a further 12 months.

Palmer had previously only played 19 times in the Premier League for City before joining Chelsea but he enjoyed a breakout year in west London, earning a call-up to the England squad for the European Championship as a result. After remaining an unused substitute for England’s first two matches, Palmer featured in all five of their next games as they reached the final, where he scored his side’s equalising goal in the 2-1 defeat by Spain.
