Maresca Calls Palmer a Top Player and Urges Him to Keep Giving His Best

Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has openly praised Cole Palmer, calling him the best player in the team. However, he wants the young star to show more drive right from the start of games. Palmer had earlier admitted he was “bored” during the UEFA Europa Conference League final against Real Betis, saying he was tired of passing the ball backwards and sideways.
Despite Chelsea conceding early in that game, Palmer stepped up with two key assists, helping the Blues to a 4-1 win. In their recent Club World Cup opener against LAFC, Palmer played seven passes into the final third and created a chance, though he didn’t get on the scoresheet.
Speaking after that match, Maresca said, “This is the version of Cole we love to see. After the Conference League final, he said he got bored and decided to change the game—and he did. “I told him the next day, ‘Why wait so long? Why not start like that from the first minute? Against LAFC, he did just that. He played the way we’ve been asking. Cole is a top player, and when he performs like this, we’re very happy. Hopefully he keeps it up.”

Napoli Reject Galatasaray’s €75m Offer as Osimhen Insists He Won’t Join Saudi Club

Galatasaray’s push to land Victor Osimhen on a permanent deal has hit a major setback, as Napoli have reportedly rejected their latest offer; even though it matches the striker’s official release clause. According to Nigerian journalist Buchi Laba, Napoli turned down Galatasaray’s third bid of €75 million, the exact amount in Osimhen’s contract clause.
The rejection has sparked fresh tension, with Laba claiming the Italian club is deliberately blocking the deal in a bid to pressure Osimhen into accepting a move to Saudi side Al Hilal. However, the Nigerian forward has made his stance crystal clear; he has no interest in moving to Saudi Arabia and is only focused on joining Galatasaray.
To further stress his position, Osimhen has reportedly informed Napoli that he won’t be returning for pre-season, showing his determination to leave the club and avoid playing under new manager Antonio Conte. The 26-year-old Super Eagles star appears to be standing firm in his decision, and with Galatasaray eager to sign him, all eyes are now on how Napoli will handle the standoff.
