Chelsea Commits to Palmer with Contract Extension

Cole Palmer has formally extended his contract with Chelsea for another two years.

Palmer made a long-term commitment to Chelsea by extending his contract to June 2033, even though his original deal was set to expire in June 2031.

After moving to Stamford Bridge from Manchester City for €47 million last summer, the 22-year-old had an outstanding first season with the Blues, contributing to 40 goals in 45 games across all competitions.

Palmer was named to England's senior squad for the first time in 2023–24 thanks to his play for Chelsea; he went on to play in the 2024 European Championship, where he scored the lone goal for his country in a 2-1 loss to Spain.

Palmer has surpassed Enzo Fernandez, whose present contract extends until 2032, as the player with the longest contract in Chelsea's first team.

He expressed his joy at signing the contract on the club's website. In my first year here, I accomplished a lot, and I want to keep improving and making a name for myself while also earning trophies for Chelsea.

Deals involving Chelsea's summer transfers
Among Chelsea's many significant summer signings is a new contract for defender Joe Palmer.

Among the nine new players signed by the Blues are winger Pedro Neto of Wolverhampton Wanderers (€60 million initial fee), Victor Osimhen of Napoli, Mike Penders of KRC Genk, and Gabriel Mec of Gremio.

Chelsea have extended Cole Palmer's contract.

But their hunt for Samu Omorodion, a forward for Atletico Madrid, has ended. The transfer has fallen through owing to problems with personal terms, but the west London club had agreed to pay €40 million to sign the Spain U21 international.

Consequently, Conor Gallagher's transfer to Atletico Madrid is currently in question, and he has been requested to return to London.

A permanent contract for Joao Felix is being considered by Chelsea as a possible solution to the dilemma; this would enable Gallagher to finalize his move to the Wanda Metropolitano.

It has been stated that Barcelona and Crystal Palace are interested in acquiring Blues midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka, while Chelsea is aiming to unload Romelu Lukaku, Trevoh Chalobah, and Kepa Arrizabalaga before the summer transfer window closes.
