He’s also in contention for other prestigious accolades, including the PFA awards, determined by player votes, featuring categories like Player of the Year and Young Player of the Year.

One X user wrote: “That’s all you need to know about this lad’s mentality! Top top.”
A second tweeted: “He’s winning it.” Another added: “This guy’s self assurance is probably his greatest asset.”
A fourth said: “He already knows he’s winning it.”
A fifth chipped in: “My guy’s manifesting.” Another said: “Mentality is the key.”
The contenders for the current PFA Player of the Year accolade have not been revealed yet. Last year, the honor was bestowed upon Erling Haaland.
Over the past decade, the award has been clinched by a distinguished lineup including Luis Suarez, Eden Hazard, Riyad Mahrez, N’Golo Kante, and Mohamed Salah.
Additionally, Virgil van Dijk and Kevin De Bruyne, who secured the award for two consecutive years, as well as Salah, who won it twice, have also been recipients.
Given his stellar performance for Chelsea this season, Palmer is poised to be a strong candidate for the 2023/24 PFA Player of the Year award.
With a remarkable tally of 22 goals and 10 assists, he has undoubtedly had the most successful season of his emerging career thus far.
