"The 23-year-old, who has established himself as one of the Premier League's best players since leaving Manchester City, is reportedly unsettled in London and keen on a return to the North West. According to The Sun, the Wythenshawe-born forward is struggling with homesickness and misses his hometown, frequently travelling back to Manchester to visit friends and family. This development has sparked hope within the Manchester hierarchy that they could lure the England international to the Theatre of Dreams in what would be a blockbuster transfer."
"Despite signing a lucrative contract extension last season that ties him to Stamford Bridge until 2033, sources close to the player suggest his long-term future may lie away from the capital. The Sun claims that while Palmer is looking for a route back to Manchester, he would not entertain a return to Manchester City while Pep Guardiola remains in charge. This stance leaves Manchester United in pole position."
"The potential move is further fueled by Palmer's childhood allegiance. It is an open secret that the forward grew up supporting Manchester United, idolising Wayne Rooney despite coming through the academy ranks of their city rivals. The emotional pull of playing for his boyhood club, combined with the presence of United technical director Jason Wilcox, who knows Palmer well from their time together at City's academy, could be decisive factors in any negotiations."
Cole Palmer is reportedly unsettled at Chelsea and frequently returns to Manchester because of homesickness. He signed a lucrative contract extension tying him to Stamford Bridge until 2033 but sources indicate his long-term future may be away from London. Palmer reportedly refuses a return to Manchester City while Pep Guardiola remains manager and would welcome interest from Manchester United, who are seen as ideal to resettle in the North West. His childhood support for Manchester United and a personal connection with United technical director Jason Wilcox strengthen the emotional and practical case for a potential transfer.
