Chelsea fans, buckle up because the transfer rumour mill just went wild!

According to reports from Spanish outlet Fichajes, Manchester City have made a jaw-dropping €170 million offer to bring Cole Palmer back to the Etihad – and Chelsea didn’t even blink before rejecting it.
Yes, you read that right. The same Man City who let Palmer leave for Stamford Bridge last summer for just £42.5m are now willing to pay FOUR TIMES that amount to re-sign the 23-year-old superstar. But Chelsea have made their stance crystal clear: Palmer is untouchable unless City are ready to cough up a world-record £250 million.

That kind of fee would smash the current transfer record and make Palmer the most expensive player in football history.

Since swapping sky blue for royal blue, Palmer has been nothing short of sensational. In his second season at Stamford Bridge, he racked up 18 goals and 13 assists in 52 games, guiding Chelsea to Europa Conference League glory and a FIFA Club World Cup triumph. He’s not just a rising star anymore – he’s one of the best players in the Premier League.

The England international has also formed the heartbeat of Enzo Maresca’s side, bringing creativity, flair, and a ruthless eye for goal. Selling him now would not only weaken Chelsea but also strengthen a direct Premier League rival.

What’s even more reassuring for Blues fans is that Palmer isn’t looking for an exit. He’s loving life at Stamford Bridge, thriving as the main man rather than just another squad player. Unlike at City, where game time was limited, Chelsea have given him the platform to flourish – and he’s repaid the faith spectacularly.

The Blues aren’t desperate to sell, they’re building something special around young talents like Palmer. And if anyone wants to take him away, it will take a fee so astronomical that it redefines the transfer market.

Right now, Palmer is more than just a player – he’s a symbol of Chelsea’s resurgence.

Would you ever consider selling Palmer for £250m, or is he priceless to Chelsea’s future?
