Former Chelsea defender, David Luiz, has praised attacking midfielder Cole Palmer for his outstanding performances since joining the club. Luiz, who was part of Chelsea’s 2012 and 2017 Champions League-winning teams, described Palmer as a world-class player with exceptional intelligence.

Palmer, who made the move to Chelsea from Manchester City in the summer of 2023, has quickly become a key player for the Blues. His first season was impressive, earning him the PFA Fans’ Player of the Year and Premier League Young Player of the Year awards.

The 22-year-old continues to shine this season, with 14 goals and 6 assists under his belt for manager Enzo Maresca’s side.

Luiz reflected on Palmer’s decision to leave Manchester City, stating, “Cole, like Eden [Hazard], is on another level, he’s a world-class player. He made a tough decision to leave City, but it was the right one. Now everyone can see the incredible talent he has.”

The Brazilian also praised Palmer’s intelligence on the pitch, saying, “He’s an intelligent player, and intelligent players are always hard to defend. He would have fit right into my Chelsea teams from 2012 and 2017. For world-class players, there’s always room.”

Real Madrid player Vinícius Júnior has spoken about his contract and how things have been since discussions began.

He said “It’s gone very well, meeting the new coach and the new players and training very hard. Mourinho wants me to be as I’ve always been: happy, cheerful, and that I play my football.”

“We have to prepare physically so that during the season we have fewer injuries and we can count on everybody. Monday was a double session, Tuesday is one session. So let’s go. Today we did a bit of work in the gym and a short session to load our legs some more.”
