Cole Palmer (Chelsea) is receiving attention from Real Madrid.

Team Talk, a British media outlet, reported on the 7th (Korean time) 'Real Madrid will be able to sign Palmer for £150 million'

Palmer left Manchester City through the summer 2023 transfer window to wear Chelsea's jersey. He hit the jackpot at Chelsea. In the 2023-2024 season, he scored 22 goals in 33 matches in the English Premier League (EPL). He also scored six goals in seven league games this season. In particular, he scored four goals in the first half alone in a league match against Brighton on the 28th of last month. EPL has made a new history. He scored 31 goals and 20 assists in 54 games for Chelsea.

TeamTalk quoted Graham Souness, a former EPL member. The media outlet said 'Souness thought Chelsea would not enjoy Palmer's talent for long. Real Madrid have said they will soon be able to sign Palmer for England's highest price of £150m'

In an interview with another media outlet, the Daily Mail, Souness said "There must have been other players Manchester City could have cashed in. Chelsea have paid £40m to sign Palmer. I wouldn't be surprised if Real Madrid offer £150m to sign Palmer next summer. He will be a top player."
