Palmer outlines biggest issue with London life after Chelsea move<\/h3>\n

Manchester City reportedly failed to include a sell-on fee in their summer deal to sell Cole Palmer to Chelsea, ensuring they will not be rewarded should the Blues move him on for big money in the future. Pep Guardiola\u2019s side have recouped significant fees through such clauses in the past, such as Jadon Sancho\u2019s 2021 move to rivals Manchester United.<\/p>\n

According to the Daily Mail, City felt confident that after receiving an initial \u00a340million and a further \u00a32.5m in add-ons from Chelsea for Palmer, they had benefited greatly from a player with just a handful of Premier League starts. The guaranteed money was seen as such a high figure that they opted against including a sell-on fee.<\/p>\n

City\u2019s insistence on such clauses in previous transfers has seen them receive additional huge fees on players that they have been willing to let go in the past. They sold Sancho to Borussia Dortmund in 2017 for \u00a38m when the academy talent wanted first-team football, but recouped a further \u00a310m when United signed him for \u00a372m four years later.<\/p>\n

They received a similar fee when Tottenham bought former youth player Pedro Porro from Sporting Lisbon and also received 20 per cent of Southampton\u2019s sale of Romeo Lavia to Chelsea for \u00a358m in the summer.<\/p>\n

Chelsea were said to be pleasantly surprised that no such clause was inserted into the deal to sign Palmer, while his initial start to life at Stamford Bridge has made the signing look like a bargain.<\/p>\n

His performances have quickly seen the 21-year-old become a regular in the team under Mauricio Pochettino, scoring four times in six league starts as he has inherited the keys to the Blues\u2019 attack – even earning a call-up to Gareth Southgate\u2019s\u00a0latest England squad before making his international debut against Malta.<\/p>\n
