Cole Palmer not keen on Manchester City return

Cole Palmer has no intention of leaving Chelsea for a sensational return to Manchester City. He’s keen to stay and shine at Stamford Bridge. 

According to Football Insider, Cole Palmer has no interest in a return to Manchester City despite recent links. The £130,000-a-week Chelsea star wants to repay the club’s faith in his talents and is also tied to Stamford Bridge for the next nine years. 

Cole Palmer’s top performances this season and last have prompted the conversation about whether Manchester City regrets letting him leave. The attacking midfielder left the Premier League champions in search of regular game time, and Chelsea did not hesitate to pay what was required to get him on board. 

So far, the move from Chelsea has been a masterstroke, with Palmer becoming their leading man. Despite his young age, his star status is rather fitting considering the numbers he has put up since making the move, which was also rewarded with a contract extension and an increase in his salary. 

The £130,000-a-week Chelsea star has a deal here until 2033, which is nine years from now. However, there are stories linking Manchester City with the attacking midfielder, with suggestions that his former side would like him back to potentially replace Kevin De Bruyne. 

De Bruyne has strong links to Saudi Arabia ahead of his contract expiration next summer, which has led to speculation that Manchester City would like to re-sign Palmer. However, the £130,000-a-week Chelsea star has no interest in moving back to the Etihad and is instead keen to shine as a Chelsea player. 

Palmer wants to repay Chelsea’s faith

A recent report suggested that Chelsea are uninterested in selling Palmer to Manchester City or any other side, and only a ‘world record’ offer could test their resolve. The possibility of mancehster City paying a fee upwards of £200 million would not be seen as ideal, and would even make their decision to sell Palmer look bad. 

In any case, Palmer has no interest in leaving Chelsea, as he’s keen to repay the club’s faith when he wasn’t given a chance at Manchester City. Hence, the Blues fans can now relax, as Palmer is not leaving anytime soon and will grace Stamford Bridge for a long time to come.
