Mauricio Pochettino can unlock Chelsea’s own Angel Di Maria with mega Karim Benzema transfer

As per football.london, Chelsea have made one of the signings of the season in Cole Palmer, but the scary thing is, he is surely only going to keep getting better. The 21-year-old was brought in from Manchester City in the summer transfer window for around £42.5million – and there was much scepticism over the fee at the time.informationguidenigeria

Coming to Stamford Bridge, Palmer had only picked up a handful of Premier League appearances for City under Pep Guardiola, who clearly rated the attacker very highly. But Palmer felt as if his next step would be a significant one.informationguidenigeria

He knew just how hard it was to break into the City first-team. Phil Foden managed to do just that and even with his extraordinary talent, he is not a guaranteed starter every time City play.NYSC Portal

“My thing was never to leave City,” Palmer said to Sky Sports earlier this month. “That was not my intention. I wanted to go on loan for a year, come back and be ready for the first-team. “But they said I couldn’t go on loan, either stay or you get sold. So then, Chelsea rang me. I said I wanted to go to Chelsea and I’m really happy to be here. I’m very glad I made the decision to come here.”NYSC Portal

Palmer has been a revelation for Chelsea since joining. In his 18 appearances in the Premier League, he has 13 direct goal contributions, with nine goals and four assists. It could also be higher, too, but the Blues have not been clinical enough in front of goal. He is joint-14th, alongside Darwin Nunez and Martin Odegaard, with seven ‘big chances created’ in the Premier League. Perhaps if a more clinical and deadly No.9 was playing in front of him, his stats would be off the chart.JAMB Portal

And as luck would have it, Chelsea are being linked with one of the deadliest central strikers to ever play football in Karim Benzema. The 36-year-old is reportedly unhappy in the Saudi Pro League with Al-Ittihad and is said to be keen on returning to European football before his career is over. Chelsea have been named as a possible next destination for Benzema. However, his wages in Saudi Arabia are astronomical and at 36, it is unlikely the Blues could justify paying such a ridiculous salary.
