Although Palmer’s exact involvement in the match is still uncertain, he confirmed that he has been participating in team training sessions, which is a promising sign for Chelsea fans. “I’ve been building up my fitness, and I’m feeling good,” Palmer added. “It’s all about being patient and making sure I’m 100% fit before returning to action.”

Palmer’s return to fitness could provide the team with a much-needed attacking spark, particularly with Chelsea struggling for consistency in the final third this season.

Chelsea’s upcoming match against Arsenal will be a vital fixture in their bid to stay competitive in the Premier League. Both clubs are currently vying for top-four positions, and Palmer’s potential return could provide Chelsea with the extra edge needed to secure all three points. Fans will be hopeful that the young winger is able to make a timely return for this critical

encounter.
