Cole Palmer now sends one word message to Noni Madueke after seeing him score for Chelsea last night

Cole Palmer has taken to social media to praise Noni Madueke after his performance for Chelsea last night.

The current Manchester City man commented on his Instagram post after he scored for the Blues in a 2-1 Carabao Cup victory over AFC Wimbledon.

While Chelsea were in action yesterday, the majority of the headlines surrounding them were revolving around Palmer.

Seemingly out of nowhere, the Blues had made him their number one target as a signing to end this summer.

It has been widely claimed that they are looking to bring in an attacking profile before the window comes to a close on Friday.

A number of names have been mentioned, including Arsenal star Emile Smith Rowe and Barcelona’s Ansu Fati.

However, it soon became clear that any attempts to sign from their city rivals were going to be rebuffed. Meanwhile, Fati is now set for a medical ahead of a season long loan at Brighton.

Within a few hours of Chelsea’s interest in Palmer being reported, the deal had already been given the iconic Fabrizio Romano seal of approval.

He will be coming into a side where he is more than familiar with a number of players. He played a key part in the England squad who brought victory at the U21 European Championships.

He completed this with Levi Colwill and Madueke, so there is likely to be an understanding with a couple of players.

He has already looked to strike that again with Madueke, being quick to comment on his post-game Instagram post.

The Blues were nervy at Stamford Bridge last night as they scraped past League Two Wimbledon.

It took goals from the England U21 international and Enzo Fernandez to turn the tide and put them through to the next round.
