This is why Chelsea signed Cole Palmer | Cole Palmer Goals, incredible skills and assists.

Cole Palmer is Manchester City's hottest and exciting talents.

It had been reported that an agreement has been reached with Manchester City over a deal for Palmer in the region of £45million. The west London outfit had seen an initial offer worth £35million for the 21-year-old turned down, with a second bid on Wednesday night agreed upon and a medical reported to be booked for Thursday.

Palmer is keen on a move to Stamford Bridge as he searches for more consistent game time after receiving the nod in a handful of games for Pep Guardiola. The England youth international has played a big part in a few games so far this season, scoring huge goals in the Community Shield and UEFA Super Cup.

The forward joining Chelsea will answer a request from Mauricio Pochettino to add another forward option to his ranks, with the versatility to play on the wings as well as at No.10. He will also have Premier League experience, something requested of a target for the head coach, albeit with limited minutes.

With a switch ready to be announced in the next day or so, bar any late twists, it will see Palmer reunite with international teammate Madueke. The pair have played alongside each other for England across all the youth levels, most recently for the under-21s in the European Championships.

CONFIRMED: Todd Boehly finally decides on FIVE players who will be leaving Stamford Bridge in the summer.

Todd Boehly has decided he will offload five Chelsea players. Since taking over as Co-owner of Chelsea, it has not clicked for Todd Boehly despite splashing the cash to sign some of the big names in world football. Consecutive run of losses and sloppy display from players are two core reasons the Blues will be considering a squad overhaul this summer, and five players will be offloaded. According to a report from the Spanish publication SPORT, it is claimed that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Hakim Ziyech, Mason Mount, Conor Gallagher and Ruben Loftus-Cheek are being lined up for sale which could raise a whopping £129 million. If the market values of the players in question are met, it would provide the incoming Chelsea manager with a hefty transfer chest to spend and bring in a couple of new faces to bolster the squad over the summer.
