Maresca Names Cole Palmer the Strongest Player at Chelsea
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has hailed Cole Palmer as the strongest player in his squad right now.
Despite struggling with a dip in form, the England international continues to push himself harder in training. Palmer, who had an impressive first 18 months at Chelsea after joining from Manchester City, is currently going through a rough patch, failing to score or assist in his last six games.
Speaking ahead of Chelsea’s clash with Southampton, Maresca praised the 22-year-old’s work ethic.
“When things aren’t going well for him, he trains even harder! I love that,” Maresca said, as quoted by Fabrizio Romano. He also revealed that Palmer topped Chelsea’s recent physical tests.
“Every six or seven months, we do a physical test. We did one in pre-season and another last week. He was the strongest in the squad.” Palmer will now be aiming to get back on the scoresheet when Chelsea face Southampton at Stamford Bridge.
Captain of the Morocco national team, Achraf Hakimi, has shared his thoughts on the controversial topic surrounding AFCON 2025.
It can be noted that the team was accused of taking towels belonging to opposition goalkeepers during matches, which sparked criticism from fans and observers, with many calling for consequences.
Hakimi expressed his disappointment over the situation, stating “I don’t feel proud about the image we gave off with the towels. Even though that happened, the team did well in the competition. We showed respect for our opponents in the tournament.”
Ademola Lookman has praised Atlético Madrid following their 2–0 victory over Barcelona.
It can be noted that the match ended 2–0, with goals scored by Julián Álvarez and Alexander Sørloth.
Speaking in a recent interview, Lookman commended the team’s performance and unity “It was a good result. The performance of the team, especially not to concede here, shows the work everyone’s been doing and the togetherness.”
Young Arsenal player Max Dowman is making headlines after reaching a major milestone—becoming the youngest player to feature in the UEFA Champions League knockout stages.
The previous record was held by Lamine Yamal, who made his appearance at 16 years and 223 days. Dowman, however, has now broken that record at just 16 years and 97 days.
The youngster continues to show great promise, adding another impressive achievement to his early career.
