England's Euro 2024 final was a tense and exciting match, but it was Cole Palmer who stole the show with his incredible goal. And now, he has been honored as England Men's Player of the Year for the 2023/24 season. This is quite an achievement for Palmer, especially considering he has only played for his country nine times.
Palmer's success didn't come as a surprise to those who have been following his career. Ever since he joined Chelsea in 2023, he has been on fire for both club and country. In the 54 matches he has played for the Blues, he has scored an impressive 31 goals. This has firmly established him as their top player and one of the most dangerous in the Premier League.
It was only a matter of time before Palmer's talent was recognized on the international stage. He made his debut for England against Malta last year and has since made nine appearances for his country. While he has only started two games, his impact has been undeniable. He even scored his first international goal in a friendly against Bosnia-Herzegovina and followed it up with another in the Euro 2024 final against Spain.
Despite his incredible form, it was surprising that Palmer didn't start a single game for England in the European Championship this summer. But that didn't stop him from being named England Men's Player of the Year, adding to his already impressive list of accolades. He also won Premier League Young Player of the Season, PFA Young Player of the Year, and both Chelsea Player and Player's Player of the Season awards.
Palmer's success was recognized by fans, who voted Real Madrid's Jude Bellingham as the runner-up and Arsenal's Bukayo Saka as the third-place winner. Saka had previously won the award in 2022 and 2023, while Kalvin Phillips won it in 2021. The last time Harry Kane won the award was back in 2018.
Chelsea also congratulated Palmer on his achievement, praising his influential and decisive performances for both club and country. It's clear that at just 22 years old, Palmer has already made a significant impact in the world of football and is bound to continue his success in the future.
