The English even made a hat trick in Chelsea’s 4-3 victory over Manchester United at Stamford Bridge. In addition, he scored four goals in the 6-0 defeat of Everton at home.
Cole Palmer is in his first season with the Blues and is already one of the team’s highlights. In total, he has 24 goals in 42 games, as well as 13 assists.
In the Premier League, the young man is the competition’s second top scorer, with 21 goals. The only athlete ahead of him is Norwegian striker Erling Haaland, from Manchester City, with 25.
With three games left to play in the English Championship, Chelsea takes to the field this Saturday, at 1:30 pm (BrasÃlia time), against Nottingham Forest, at the City Ground.
The Blues occupy seventh place, with 54 points, and are still looking to qualify for the Europa League. However, with six points behind Tottenham (5th) and two points behind Newcastle (6th), they will need a great combination of results to take the place.
