In an exciting development, Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino has hinted at the possibility of Cole Palmer making his first Premier League start for the Blues in their highly-anticipated encounter against Fulham on Monday. This revelation came during Pochettino’s pre-match press conference ahead of the Chelsea-Fulham clash at Craven Cottage.
Having secured Palmer’s services for a potential £45 million deal from Manchester City during the summer transfer window, Chelsea fans have eagerly anticipated witnessing the newcomer shine on the field. Thus far, Palmer has made a total of four appearances in various competitions for the team this season.
When asked about the likelihood of Palmer’s Premier League debut, Pochettino responded with cautious optimism. He stated, “Yes, maybe, yes. I’m delighted with his performance. Despite only spending a few weeks with us, he has showcased exceptional ability and seamlessly integrated into the team. Undoubtedly, he is on my mind for Monday’s fixture.”
