Chelsea are reportedly willing to offer Cole Palmer a lucrative new deal to bridge the gap between the 21-year-old and the club’s highest earners.
Man City made the massive decision in the last summer window to allow Palmer to depart the club after he made the decision that it was the right thing for his career to move away.

He fully deserves a new contract
