Cole Palmer
23-Year-Old
Chelsea
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Palmer followed up his breakout campaign with 15 goals and eight assists in 2024/25, though it was a slight dip from the previous season's 22 goals and 11 assists. Notably, that prior production came in 581 fewer minutes, albeit with a ridiculous nine penalties converted (he took one last season). Still just 23 years old, Palmer should remain one of the best fantasy options in the league. Despite Chelsea adding numerous bodies to the attack, it's hard to see Palmer losing starts, keeping his floor higher than most having not dealt with a bad injury the past two years. There is some concern his numbers dropped in the second half of last season, but some of that can be attributed to injuries around him, something that shouldn't be a problem again given Chelsea's summer spending.
Scores Tuesday
Palmer scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and two chances created in Tuesday's 2-2 draw versus AFC Bournemouth.
ANALYSIS
Palmer recorded a goal against Bournemouth, winning a tackle with two key passes on the day. Since his return from injury, he has started five of the six league games played, scoring twice with six key passes, four shots on target and three tackles won.
