Palmer explains why he left Manchester City for Chelsea

One of the biggest transfers in the Premier League last summer was that of the extremely talented, Cole Palmerwith the Chelsea to include him in its roster by paying 47 million euros to Manchester City.

Having now moved to London, the 21-year-old explained his decision to leave the champions for Chelsea, stressing that he wanted to live outside of Manchester for the first time in his life and compete more in the position he loves the most.

“I’m not saying I wanted to avoid competition, that’s something I’ve never done myself. I’ve been in the City first team for the last few years and I wanted to get more opportunities to play in my position and be able to make a difference.”he initially reported and went on to say:

“It was a huge decision for me. I was 15 years at City, I had never left Manchester, I had never gone to play elsewhere on loan. I only left Manchester for holidays and away games. I felt strange about leaving, but I had no more time to waste. I had to do it”.

??? ‘It was a huge decision – there is a lot of extra responsibility’ ??
