Discussions about Cole Palmer potentially joining Manchester United continue, with some believing he may go there in the future.
After a slow start to the season due to injury, Chelsea’s important player has shown a strong performance in recent matches.
He is expected to start again, especially given his good history against Burnley, but speculation about his future remains.

Even though Ben Jacobs has downplayed connections between Palmer and United, a close friend of the Chelsea player suggested that a future move is possible.
During an Instagram Q&A, musician Tunde was asked about Palmer’s potential transfer to United and replied: “Very high.”
This post has since been deleted, but it has amplified concerns among Chelsea fans about a potential departure.
At present, there’s no indication that Palmer wants to leave. In fact, he seems content in his situation.
He’s formed a solid partnership with Joao Pedro, both on and off the pitch.
Chelsea have taken precautions to guard against Cole Palmer’s exit
If a lifelong United supporter is approached by the club, it might be challenging for Chelsea to keep him.
When Chelsea signed Palmer, they secured a long-term contract with him, reportedly lasting until 2033.
With seven years remaining on his deal, Chelsea could demand a significant transfer fee should it come to that.
Currently, only PSG might be able to meet such demands, easing immediate concerns about Palmer leaving.
