Palmer Wants To Help Chelsea Secure UCL Football – Enzo Maresca

Chelsea forward, Cole Palmer missed training before the Leicester game, Enzo Maresca has said. He recently revealed that the forward was battling fever and diarrhoea, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, Palmer was not feeling well on Friday night ahead of the game, and that caused him to miss training with his teammates on Saturday.

Maresca added that Cole then woke up on Sunday morning and told him he needed to be on the pitch to help Chelsea secure UCL football.

His words, “It’s very easy: Cole didn’t train yesterday and during the night he didn’t feel well. The reason why he didn’t train yesterday is fever and diarrhoea in the last 48 hours. This morning, he woke up and he asked me, ‘I want to be on the pitch because I want to help this team, this club to play Champions League’. This shows how these players want to bring the club where it belongs to.”

WOW.

Chelsea Football Club is an English professional football club based in Fulham, West London. Founded in 1905, they play their home games at Stamford Bridge.

The club competes in the Premier League, the top division of English football. They won their first major honour, the League championship, in 1955. The club won the FA Cup for the first time in 1970, their first European honour, the Cup Winners’ Cup, in 1971, and became the third English club to win the Club World Cup in 2022.

On 7 May 2022, Chelsea confirmed that terms have been agreed for a new ownership group, led by Todd Boehly, Clearlake Capital, Mark Walter and Hansjörg Wyss, to acquire the club. The group was later known as BlueCo.

The UK government approved the £4.25bn takeover, ending Abramovich’s 19-year ownership of the club. Bruce Buck, who served as chairman since 2003, was replaced by Boehly, while long-serving club director and de facto sporting director Marina Granovskaia left, as did Petr Čech from the role of technical and performance advisor.
