Chelsea midfielder Cole Palmer has been named the Premier League Young Player of the Season, surpassing contenders like Phil Foden, Erling Haaland, Alexander Isak, Kobbie Mainoo, William Saliba, Bukayo Saka, and Destiny Udogie.
Palmer, who joined Chelsea last summer on transfer deadline day from Manchester City, has had an outstanding season, scoring 22 goals and providing 10 assists in league play.
His significant contributions played a crucial role in Chelsea securing a sixth-place finish in the Premier League.
The 22-year-old England international demonstrated versatility and scoring prowess, with 27 goals and 14 assists across all competitions.
Remarkably, Palmer is set to finish as the second-highest goalscorer in the Premier League, behind only Haaland. His ability to score from multiple positions stands out, with 12 goals from the right-wing and another 12 from the number 10 role.
