Man City bid record price to bring Palmer back to Etihad

Manchester City are reportedly ready to spend up to £170m to re-sign Cole Palmer, who left the Etihad less than two years ago.

Man City want Palmer to replace Kevin De Bruyne.

According to Fichajes , Pep Guardiola is looking to make amends for letting Palmer leave. The Spaniard has never hidden his admiration for the England midfielder and now he is ready to break the bank to bring the player back to Manchester.

If this deal happens, this will be a record transfer fee for an English player. It could also change the landscape of football in the foggy country, when the two biggest forces, Chelsea and Man City, enter the battle to win talent.

Public opinion is divided as one side believes Palmer should stay at Chelsea to continue to be the centerpiece of the long-term project, while others believe Man City is the perfect launching pad for him to shine at Champions League level.

Since joining Chelsea for a fee of around £47 million, Palmer has made great strides in his career. At Stamford Bridge, the player born in 2002 has not only exploded in form but also become a mainstay in the London team's playing style.

The 2024/25 season saw Cole Palmer score 18 goals and provide 11 assists in just 31 Premier League games, numbers Man City can't ignore. Transfermarkt values ​​Palmer at 120 million euros, but his influence and potential means Chelsea value the player much higher.
