Cole Palmer left Manchester City in a £42.5m transfer to Chelsea, with Juanma Lillo offering an insight into why the Blues let him leave.
Manchester City found it difficult to persuade Cole Palmer to stay after the player decided to join Chelsea in the final week of the transfer window.
Pep Guardiola had suggested that the only way Palmer would leave would be a permanent transfer, and the England under-21 international sealed his exit with a £42.5m move to Chelsea, becoming City's most expensive academy graduate in the process. "On the other side, there is a pride that young player upon player is being created now and starting to give life to the rest of the country, like at Chelsea.
Meanwhile, Palmer's new Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino admitted that the winger expects to play more at Stamford Bridge than he did at City - but told Palmer that his starts won't be guaranteed.
