Liverpool are reportedly preparing a stunning move to sign Chelsea star Cole Palmer.
Palmer, who is currently listed at 20/1 odds to win the 2025 Ballon d’Or, has emerged as Chelsea’s main attacking threat since his surprising switch from Manchester City in 2023.
With the Blues still battling for Champions League qualification, Arne Slot’s Liverpool are keeping a close eye, ready to swoop in and secure a deal ahead of next season.
Although Palmer may not match his previous tally of 27 goals and 15 assists this campaign, his performances continue to impress.
Slot is said to be a big admirer of the 22-year-old England international, and with possible exits for Darwin Nunez, Luis Diaz, and Federico Chiesa on the horizon, this transfer could catch many by surprise.
According to teamTALK, Chelsea could demand around £85 million for Palmer, although much may depend on whether the club can offload other players such as Trevoh Chalobah, Joao Felix, and Kepa Arrizabalaga.
