Chelsea star Cole Palmer 'set for lucrative pay rise on current £80,000-a-week deal' after excellent debut season following move from Man City

Chelsea star Cole Palmer will reportedly be rewarded with a lucrative improved contract after an excellent debut season at Stamford Bridge.

England international Palmer, 21, has impressed since signing from Manchester City for an initial £40million in September last year.

Although Palmer signed a seven-year contract with the option of a further 12 months, The Daily Telegraph report he will be offered a significant increase on his current £80,000-a-week salary.

They say that while no talks over the improved deal have started - or are imminent - there is already an acknowledgement within Stamford Bridge that Palmer deserves better terms.
