Mauricio Pochettino, the manager of Chelsea, has suggested that Cole Palmer may get his first start in the Premier League against Fulham.
It's been heard that Pochettino planned to give Palmer his first Blues start in Monday's match against Fulham.
At his pre-match news conference before Chelsea's match against Fulham at Craven Cottage, Pochettino made a statement.
If you remember, Chelsea acquired Palmer from Manchester City during the summer transfer window at an estimated £45 million.
Palmer, however, has only made four appearances for Chelsea this season in all competitions.
In Chelsea's 1-0 victory against Brighton in the third round of the Carabao Cup on Wednesday, Palmer assists Nicolas Jackson.
Palmer would start for Chelsea in the Premier League for the first time, Pochettino informed reporters.
Pochettino said, "Yes, maybe, yes.
“I’m so happy with his performance. After only a few weeks with us he was able to perform very well and fit in the team. For sure he is on my mind [for Monday].”
