Former Chelsea midfielder Gus Poyet is convinced that Cole Palmer can achieve the same iconic status as club legends Eden Hazard and Gianfranco Zola. The ex-footballer attributes this potential to Palmer's renewed joy in playing at Stamford Bridge.
Last season was tough for Palmer, who dealt with health issues and managed to score 11 goals in 34 appearances. However, this campaign has seen the Englishman rediscover his best form, netting four goals and providing three assists.
He looks happy, and for a player like Cole Palmer, that is incredibly important, — Poyet said in an interview with GOAL, adding that with the high quality of Chelsea's attack, Palmer no longer has to shoulder all the responsibility alone.
With his contract running until 2034, Palmer has ample opportunity to build a great legacy and add to the trophy cabinet in West London.
