Cole Palmer’s stance on joining has been revealed after the Blues reached an agreement with over a transfer.
Palmer, 21,
has signed off on a move for the England U21 international, eager to bring in another attacking option before Friday’s deadline.
now report that Chelsea have agreed a deal with City to sign Palmer and the west Londoners are set to pay around £40-£45m.
Assuming Palmer passes a medical, which he is set to undergo in the next 24 hours, he just needs to agree personal terms with the Blues.
That does not seem to be a problem with indicating that Palmer has already said yes to the move and is thought to be ready for a new chapter.
Palmer has three years left on his contract at the Etihad Stadium and while Pep Guardiola was open to keeping him, first-team opportunities were likely to come at a premium given City’s options in attack.
Palmer has managed 10 minutes of Premier League action this term, coming off the bench in the opening day victory over Burnley.
He also started the Super Cup final against Sevilla, getting on the scoresheet before City went onto win 5-4 on penalties.
Palmer has made 41 appearances in all competitions for City since making his senior debut in September 2020, with 19 of those coming in the league.
