With Chelsea now buzzing after their great beginning in European competitions, one name that has been in the headlines since the start is Cole Palmer. Although Cole Palmer has been sensational for Chelsea since his switch from Manchester City, transfer rumors about his possible switch to Manchester United have been rather disturbing for Chelsea fans. Let’s break down the buzz and look at Chelsea’s future transfer plans. And remove the mist around this rumor.
Cole Palmer Uncertain Future with The Blues
Gary Neville has already had his say on Cole Palmer for Manchester United. And he’s quite strong in the message he is sending. Appearing on It’s Called Soccer, a former United defender made a plain statement: “United don’t stand a chance.”. Palmer left Manchester City last year and joined Chelsea. He has been making waves there. Chelsea has no plans of releasing him, not after the kind of start he has had. Important goals and immediate adaptation under manager Enzo Maresca make Palmer a very important part of Chelsea’s plans from now on and for the future. As they look for silverware in years to come.
Neville said, pointing out the irony of Palmer growing up for Manchester United and now thriving at Chelsea: “It’s like salt in the wound.”. Neville said, portraying the frustration of United fans seeing a talent they would love at Old Trafford shine in blue instead. Chelsea, having invested time and resources into Palmer, are unlikely to entertain any offers from United.
Chelsea Gets Champions League Stars on Radar
While rumors abound about Palmer, Chelsea has acted by advancing talent scouting into their books to bring even more reinforcements. Reports indicate that the club is following two stars of the Champions League worth £108 million. Chelsea’s recent scouting has targeted players who could hit the ground running as the club seeks to strengthen ahead of a demanding season. A season that has so many tournaments and more matches.
The two players who have caught Chelsea’s eye are multi-functional and have proven themselves on the European stage. They would not only enhance the quality of the team but also increase manager Enzo Maresca’s options on the pitch. Especially, as Chelsea is competing in more than one tournament. While the names of these two players are not mentioned, talk of big money moves has fans at the edge of their seats, waiting for the January transfer window. Hoping for their club to perform once again.
Speed breaker On Chelsea’s Way
Though excitement around possible signings continues to grow, there are still issues within the club. Former Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel recently pointed to goalkeeper Robert Sanchez as a weak link. Sanchez has been brilliant at times. But Mikel has stressed that Chelsea needs a world-class goalkeeper who can score consistently and help bring titles.
“If you want to win the Premier League, you need a world-class goalkeeper,” Mikel said to The Obi One Podcast. His words have caused speculation about Chelsea possibly looking for a different shot stopper in the transfer window.
Conclusion
As the transfer rumors go on, Chelsea fans don’t have any reason to worry because Cole Palmer stays. A squad full of their prized asset and the scouting of upcoming stars with such big signings coming soon. Also including possible signings for £108M, may have Chelsea in the position to stay among the best on the continent. Whether these additions will bring them to the top of the Premier League again is left to time to tell. But one thing is for sure, the January transfer season would be one of a thriller.
