Cole Palmer wins player of the year award for 2024

Cole Palmer Makes History with FSA Player of the Year Award

Chelsea’s rising star, Cole Palmer, has added yet another accolade to his rapidly growing list of achievements. The 22-year-old England international was named the 2024 Football Supporters’ Association (FSA) Player of the Year, solidifying his status as one of the most exciting talents in world football.

Palmer’s impact at Chelsea has been nothing short of remarkable since his move from Manchester City on the final day of the 2023 summer transfer window. His performances have been instrumental in Chelsea’s campaign, earning him widespread praise from fans, players, media outlets, pundits, and commentators alike. The FSA Player of the Year award, voted for by this diverse group, highlights his influence on and off the pitch.

This victory is historic, as Palmer becomes not only the first Chelsea player to win the prestigious award but also the first Englishman to claim the honor since Harry Kane in 2017. He edged out competition from elite players like Rodri, Bukayo Saka, Mohamed Salah, Ollie Watkins, and Erling Haaland.

Expressing his gratitude, Palmer said, “Thank you to everyone who voted for me. It’s an honor to be the first Chelsea player to win this award.”

The recognition underscores Palmer’s meteoric rise and his potential to shape the future of English football. As he continues to develop at Chelsea, fans will undoubtedly look forward to witnessing more history being made by this extraordinary talent.
