Mauricio Pochettino disclosed that Cole Palmer expresses gratitude towards Manchester City and Pep Guardiola, however he does not feel remorseful about his decision to join Chelsea.
The English player transferred from last season’s Treble-winning team to the West London club in a significant £42 million transaction in August. The young player was determined to get more playing time and has now become the subject of conversation at Stamford Bridge, scoring 20 goals in the top division – tied with Erling Haaland for the Golden Boot and in contention for the PFA Player of the Year award.
He is also expected to showcase his skills for the England national team in Euro 2024. However, despite City’s strong position in their pursuit of a fourth consecutive Premier League title, Palmer remains confident that he made the correct choice.
Pochettino expressed his deep appreciation for Manchester City and Pep Guardiola at his news conference, when he discussed the upcoming FA Cup semi-final match against the Citizens. “He consistently expresses great admiration for Manchester City and Pep.” He does not possess the characteristics or qualities that would indicate he has any hidden motives or intentions.
“He comprehended fully that, perhaps due to various motives, he desired to demonstrate his abilities in an alternative organization.” Today, we express gratitude to Manchester City for providing the opportunity to transfer to a different team. I retract my previous statement and assert that he is not the kind of individual who seeks to demonstrate something against his previous team. He expresses deep gratitude for Pep and Manchester City.
