Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes has questioned how his old club missed out on Chelsea star Cole Palmer.
The England star has risen to prominence in the Premier League after impressing for the Blues since joining from Manchester City for £40m in the summer of 2023, ufabet https://ufabet999.app scoring 25 goals in his first season and 12 in 11 games this year.
Palmer has previously spoken of childhood images of himself wearing a United shirt, with Scholes praising the 22-year-old as having everything he needs and questioning why United haven’t signed him.
“Cole Palmer has been brilliant, hasn’t he? I think he’s brilliant,” Scholes told The Overlap. “He’s a big United fan too. How could we miss him? If he was with us now, we wouldn’t be 14th in the league.”
“Cole Palmer is a fantastic player – talent, goals, assists – he’s got it all.”
