Chelsea attacking midfielder Cole Palmer has signed a contract extension with the club, keeping him at Stamford Bridge until 2034. Palmer, an England international, joined Chelsea from Manchester City in 2023 and has become a key player, scoring 91 goals in 138 appearances across all competitions. He has already won the Club World Cup in 2025 and the 2024-25 UEFA Conference League with the team. Palmer stated that the confidence shown by the owners, sporting directors, and manager, along with the shared ambitions of his teammates, influenced his decision to sign. This extension follows a trend of Chelsea agreeing long-term deals with several first-team players and emerging talent. Manager Xabi Alonso recently affirmed Palmer's commitment to playing for England, despite a recent withdrawal from the international squad due to injury.
