Cole Palmer may get his first Premier League start for Chelsea in their match against Fulham on Monday, according to Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino.

At his pre-match press conference before Chelsea's match against Fulham at Craven Cottage, Pochettino made a statement.

Palmer was acquired by Chelsea from Manchester City during the summer transfer window for a possible £45 million transfer.

For Chelsea so far this season, Palmer has only made four appearances in all competitions.

When asked if Palmer would make his first Premier League start for Chelsea, Pochettino told reporters: “Yes, maybe, yes.

“I’m so happy with his performance. After only a few weeks with us, he was able to perform very well and fit in with the team. For sure, he is on my mind [for Monday].”
