Cole Palmer has easily been one of the best players in the Premier League since his move to the Blue side of London from the Blue side of Manchester.

Surely he must be one of the top earners in the squad then considering his terrific form, right? The answer is rather surprising as the English midfielder barely breaks into the top ten earners list at Stamford Bridge.

Just how much does the 22-year-old earn at Chelsea, though?

GOAL delved into the numbers with Capology and found out!

*Salaries are gross

  • Cole Palmer’s wages at Chelsea in numbers

    Palmer signed a nine-year contract with Chelsea back in 2024, keeping him at the club until 2033.

    The creative attacker currently draws a salary of £130,000 ($164,208) on a weekly basis, making it a total of close to £7 million ($8.5m) annually.

    Highest paid players in the world

    Palmer's salary numbers almost appear child-like when compared to the highest paid players in the world. The list is majorly dominated by former stars of Europe who have flocked to the Saudi Premier League.

    One of the greatest forwards to ever grace the sport, Cristiano Ronaldo sits at the top of the list as the top-earner across the world, playing for SPL side Al Nassr.

    Following him on the list is his former Real Madrid compatriot in Karim Benzema who plays for Al Ittihad.

    Meanwhile, Riyad Mahrez comes in at third, followed by Senegalese internationals Sadio Mane and Kalidou Koulibaly at fourth and fifth spot.
