ShareCole Palmer, who is closing in on 50 Premier League goals, has signed a new contract with Chelsea to run for the next eight years.Cole Palmer wants to challenge for more major trophies after committing his long-term future to Chelsea, signing a new contract to run until 2034.The Blues confirmed their star forward had penned an eight-year deal on Saturday, ahead of their home Premier League game against Bournemouth.Palmer has become the face of Chelsea's attack since joining from Manchester City in August 2023, scoring 58 goals and supplying 33 assists in all competitions – both team-high figures.He helped the Blues win the Conference League and the Club World Cup under Enzo Maresca in 2025, while he has also been a losing finalist in the FA Cup (in 2025-26) and the EFL Cup (2023-24).In the Premier League, Palmer's 71 combined goal involvements for Chelsea are more than double the amount any other player has registered for the club since the start of 2023-24 (Nicolas Jackson managed 34), and are the fourth-most of any player overall.Only Erling Haaland (97), Mohamed Salah (89) and Ollie Watkins (75) have managed more direct goal contributions in the competition during that time.However, Palmer is yet to enjoy sustained success in the league, with Chelsea managing finishes of sixth, fourth and 10th in his three campaigns at Stamford Bridge, and the England international wants that to change going forward. "Chelsea means a lot to me and I think the club is going in the right direction, so I'm delighted to sign, and I'm obviously very happy," Palmer told the club's website."Speaking to the owners, to the sporting directors and, obviously, the manager, they gave me a lot of confidence, so it was only right to sign."Speaking to players as well, everyone has the same ambitions. I feel like we win major trophies here consistently and I want to be a part of that and play a big role in it too."Palmer has enjoyed a strong start to the 2026-27 campaign under Xabi Alonso, though Chelsea went into the international break on a three-game winless streak (D1 L2).His four goal involvements in the Premier League this season (two goals, two assists) have only been bettered by team-mate Joao Pedro, Brighton's Pascal Gross (both six), Manchester City trio Haaland, Rayan Cherki and Antoine Semenyo and Liverpool's Cody Gakpo (all five).Cole Palmer, who is closing in on 50 Premier League goals, has signed a new contract with Chelsea to run for the next eight years.Cole Palmer wants to challenge for more major trophies after committing his long-term future to Chelsea, signing a new contract to run until 2034.The Blues confirmed their star forward had penned an eight-year deal on Saturday, ahead of their home Premier League game against Bournemouth.Palmer has become the face of Chelsea's attack since joining from Manchester City in August 2023, scoring 58 goals and supplying 33 assists in all competitions – both team-high figures.He helped the Blues win the Conference League and the Club World Cup under Enzo Maresca in 2025, while he has also been a losing finalist in the FA Cup (in 2025-26) and the EFL Cup (2023-24).In the Premier League, Palmer's 71 combined goal involvements for Chelsea are more than double the amount any other player has registered for the club since the start of 2023-24 (Nicolas Jackson managed 34), and are the fourth-most of any player overall.Only Erling Haaland (97), Mohamed Salah (89) and Ollie Watkins (75) have managed more direct goal contributions in the competition during that time.However, Palmer is yet to enjoy sustained success in the league, with Chelsea managing finishes of sixth, fourth and 10th in his three campaigns at Stamford Bridge, and the England international wants that to change going forward.
