In a recent interview with The Telegraph, Palmer was asked if he sees himself staying as a Chelsea player for the rest of his playing career. He stated: “Absolutely. Chelsea feels like home to me, and I’m excited about what we can achieve together. I’m fully committed to the club and its future.”
Palmer had actually penned a new nine-year contract extension with Chelsea in the summer and his current deal does not expire before June 30, 2033. He looks extremely satisfied with his role in the team and the London giants will definitely not want to lose their crown jewel anytime soon in the years to come.
How Palmer Has Fared So Far This Season
The 22-year-old midfielder has been one of Chelsea’s best players under Maresca’s system and seems to be thriving in the no.10 role, which gives him more creative freedom as well as that to score goals from central areas. Palmer has already scored six goals and provided as many assists in the Premier League, which includes his amazing four-goal haul in Chelsea’s 4-2 win over Brighton in the league earlier this season.

The Chelsea midfielder, who was hailed as “amazing” for his performances in Euro 2024 for England, will look to maintain his admirable goal contribution consistency to help his side win big trophies and make himself among the contenders for the 2025 Ballon d’Or award.
