Michael Owen has revealed a time will come Cole Palmer may want to leave Chelsea.

Palmer left Manchester City to join Chelsea last summer, and ended up becoming Chelsea’s Player of the Season.

Cole Palmer has seen his stock rise since joining Chelsea, but Owen believes the 22-year-old will become dissatisfied if Chelsea don’t start winning trophies soon.

“For me, it’s all about if there’s a massive discrepancy in terms of one of the clubs being bigger and if you’ve got more chance of winning the league or the Champions League at another club,” Owen told AceOdds.

“People tend to always want to better themselves in life. I mean, it’s not just footballers. Most people would try to better themselves.

“He went to Chelsea because he wasn’t getting a game at Man City. If he had the opportunity to go to a team that was going to give him more of a chance of winning the league or Champions League, then that’s when it becomes interesting.

“As things stand, are Liverpool more likely to win the Premier League than Chelsea? I would say so but it’s not like Liverpool players are guaranteed to win the title.

“But listen, if Man City came back in for him and wanted to spend £100m, then that’s a different question. But I think he’d probably stay put at the moment.”
