Manchester United have been told that it would take a fee of £201 million to secure the summer signing of Chelsea star Cole Palmer, a player the Red Devils have been linked with over the past few months.
Palmer has been one of ***CHELSEA***’s standout performers this season, quickly becoming a central figure in the squad following his move from Manchester City a few windows ago. His creativity, composure, and versatility have made him indispensable, and he is widely viewed as one of the club’s most successful signings in recent seasons.
Sources cited by Goal suggest that Chelsea executives believe Palmer is fully committed to the project at Stamford Bridge and sees himself as a key long-term contributor.
But Blues defender Sinclair told GOAL when asked if there are any fears that Palmer could pack his bags for Manchester as a boyhood United supporter: “I’m not too fussed about rumours, unless it comes from Cole Palmer saying that he’s homesick. Liam Rosenior seems to have a decent relationship with him and seems to be quite strong on the fact that Cole Palmer is happy at the club and he’s not seen anything of these rumours that are going about. He’s a proper man anyway.
“If you’re going to settle in a city, then I think London’s one of the best ones to settle in, without me being biased. But I don’t think that’s affecting his football.
‘I think the major issues that he’s had with his football this season is being able to keep fit or managing injuries that he’s had and he hasn’t had a run of games, which you need to have the form to play to the standard that he plays at. So it’d be interesting to see what happens.
“With football, you never know. You never know and you’re never surprised if Cole Palmer rocked up at Man United or something like that, or back at City or Liverpool, you’re never surprised with football.
‘But I would be personally surprised as a CHELSEA fan myself, if he would leave a club that I think are on the brink of getting things back to being a real force in the Premier League in the next few years.”
He added: “Yeah, you’d imagine so. You’re buying, in some sense, potential as well because I don’t think he’s the finished article, still a very young kid, not in his prime and you’re buying a player that potentially can play at the top level for the next 10 years. So, yeah, it’s going to cost a lot of money.”
