Chelsea winger Noni Madueke believes that his Blues teammate Cole Palmer has no ceiling as the 22-year-old continues to light up the Premier League.
Man City allowed the midfielder to move to Stamford Bridge last summer as part of a £42.5m deal and it is a decision that has not aged well for the Premier League champions.
Palmer has gone on to become Chelsea’s most important player and put up some incredible numbers. Across the 54 appearances he has made for the London outfit, the Englishman has produced 31 goals alongside 20 assists.
Throughout the opening phase of the 2024/25 campaign, the former Man City star has already provided Chelsea with six goals and five assists across all competitions, which has contributed massively to Enzo Maresca’s team’s positive start to the season.
Follwing his four goals against Brighton, many asked the question if Palmer is the best player in the Premier League.
His Chelsea teammate Noni Madueke has not answered this, however, the winger has stated that there is no ceiling on the 22-year-old’s talent.
Speaking to The Athletic, Madueke said: “I think the sky’s the limit for Cole Palmer. I don’t know if he has a ceiling, I don’t know what his ceiling is.
“Cole Palmer’s a very unique player. A type of player that doesn’t feel pressure, in the most pressurised situations. I admire that about him. He’s a great footballer. And I’m sure he’s going to produce for England, just as he does for Chelsea.”
