The 21-year-old has been at Manchester City since the age of six, and took a moment to reflect on his decision to leave before heading south.
Cole Palmer has recounted the moment he fully comprehended that his Manchester City career was ending upon his decision to leave the Premier League champions for Chelsea.
The exit of Riyad Mahrez potentially opened an avenue for the England Under-21 international, who scored for City in last month’s UEFA Super Cup. But the arrival of fellow winger Jeremy Doku cast doubt over Palmer’s ambition for more minutes with Bernardo Silva also returning from injury. "I don’t know any different. I’ve never been on loan. I’ve never moved out of Manchester. The only time I’ve ever been outside of Manchester is on holiday or away games. Going there does feel weird, but there is no time to waste. I’ve got to get to it."
"I’m not saying I shied away from the competition because I’ve never done that. I’d been there for a few years and wanted more of an opportunity to play - in my position and to have more of an impact."
