Cole Palmer’s stance on joining Chelsea has been revealed after the Blues reached an agreement with Manchester City over a summer transfer.

Palmer, 21, emerged as a late target for Chelsea heading into the final days of the summer transfer window.

Mauricio Pochettino has signed off on a move for the England U21 international, eager to bring in another attacking option before Friday?s deadline.

The Athletic now report that Chelsea have agreed a deal with City to sign Palmer and the west Londoners are set to pay around £40-£45m.

Assuming Palmer passes a medical, which he is set to undergo in the next 24 hours, he just needs to agree personal terms with the Blues.
That does not seem to be a problem with reports indicating that Palmer has already said yes to the move and is thought to be ready for a new chapter.

Palmer has three years left on his contract at the Etihad Stadium and while Pep Guardiola was open to keeping him, first-team opportunities were likely to come at a premium given City?s options in attack.
