Cole Palmer ‘Untouchable’ at Chelsea — Rosenior Shuts Down Exit Rumours
Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior has firmly dismissed any speculation surrounding Cole Palmer’s future at Stamford Bridge, declaring the England international “untouchable” in his squad.
Speaking during a press conference ahead of Chelsea’s crucial UEFA Champions League clash against Napoli on Wednesday, Rosenior addressed circulating rumours suggesting Palmer might be unsettled at the club. The Chelsea boss wasted no time in shutting them down.
“Cole Palmer happy? YES. Untouchable? YES,” Rosenior said, as quoted by football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
He went further to criticise the reports, describing them as unfounded and unnecessary.
“There is no reason for an assurance from the club. It is so unrealistic. It comes from nowhere. No need to talk,” he added.
Palmer has been included in Chelsea’s squad for the Napoli encounter, a clear signal of his importance as the Blues look to secure a positive result in Europe.
Since joining Chelsea from Manchester City three years ago, Palmer has grown into one of the club’s most influential players, consistently delivering goals, assists, and match-winning performances. His composure, creativity, and maturity have made him a fan favourite and a central figure in Chelsea’s rebuilding process.
Opinion: Chelsea Have Found Their Cornerstone
In a team still searching for long-term stability, Cole Palmer feels like the one constant Chelsea cannot afford to lose. Rosenior’s strong words are not just managerial backing—they are a statement of intent.
Calling a player “untouchable” in modern football is rare, but Palmer has earned that status. He plays with confidence, carries responsibility effortlessly, and shows leadership beyond his years. For Chelsea supporters, his presence offers hope that the club is finally building around quality rather than chasing it.
If Chelsea are serious about returning to the top of English and European football, keeping Palmer at the heart of the project is non-negotiable. For now, Rosenior has made it clear: Cole Palmer is going nowhere—and Chelsea are better for it.
