Palmer made his debut during a 2-0 win over Malta at Wembley in November 2023, claiming legacy number 1276. The 22 year old has gone on to chalk up nine senior caps which included five appearances at UEFA EURO 2024. He also found the net twice in that period, including a stunning strike against Spain in July’s final in Berlin.
Palmer’s breakthrough season for England came alongside an impressive debut campaign for Chelsea. He becomes the first Chelsea player to win the award since current Three Lions’ assistant coach Ashley Cole in 2010.
Voting was open to all England players who had played in 50 per cent or more senior fixtures between September 2023 and July 2024.
