“I envy Chelsea for having such talented player” “He shocked me” – Sergio Aguero reveals
Legendary Manchester City player Sergio Aguero expressed his astonishment at Cole Palmer’s success at Chelsea.
Cole Palmer, who ended up being the team’s finest player, left Manchester City in the summer to accept a £42 million contract with Chelsea.
Cole Palmer was a City youth player that Aguero knew, but he wasn’t prepared for how quickly he rose to prominence at Chelsea.
“I saw Cole Palmer’s talent first-hand so I’m not surprised,” Aguero told Stake.com.
“But it was quite shocking to see how fast he adapted to a new team.
“It would normally be really tough for players to do that. You can tell that this process went exceptionally well by the amount of goals and assists Cole had during his first season.”
Palmer scored 22 goals and provided 11 assists in 33 Premier League games for Chelsea.
His form at Chelsea has earned him a place in England’s team for Euro 2024.
