Makes starting XI in friendly Palmer (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Saturday's friendly against AC Milan, according to the club.

Impact Palmer had been left out entirely for the earlier friendly against Juventus with a minor discomfort, a precautionary absence new coach Xabi Alonso said the club did not want to risk. His return to the starting XI confirms that issue has cleared up, positioning him to build match fitness after a frustrating, injury disrupted season that saw him finish with 10 league goals and one assist across 26 appearances.

Impact Palmer's absence is described as precautionary rather than a serious setback, coming after a frustrating, injury disrupted season by his lofty standards, one that saw him miss a big chunk of the first half of the campaign and finish with 10 league goals and one assist in 26 appearances. His creativity, penalty taking and eye for goal make him one of Chelsea's most important attacking pieces, whether deployed centrally as a number 10 or out wide, and he is hoped to be available for the club's next match against AC Milan. Palmer is expected to be reassessed as the club continues preseason preparations.

Training individually Tuesday Palmer trained individually Tuesday ahead of Wednesday's friendly against Juventus in Hong Kong, making him a potential doubt for the match, Nizaar Kinsella of BBC Sport reports.

Impact Palmer was hampered by a string of different injuries throughout last season, limiting him to just 26 league appearances, and while he did get a rare fully rested summer after being left out of the World Cup squad, seeing him already picking up problems in pre-season is not the ideal sign heading into the new campaign. He was pictured doing individual work at Chelsea's open training session Tuesday, and while the club has not disclosed any details about the issue, this kind of solo work early in pre-season is often precautionary and manageable rather than alarming. Even so, it leaves him a doubt for Wednesday's friendly against Juventus in Hong Kong

Impact Palmer finished last season with 10 league goals, tying for second on the team despite missing a significant chunk of the campaign through injury and enduring a frustrating stretch without a goal contribution that ultimately cost him a spot on England's World Cup roster. His recent comments reflect a player determined to put a difficult year behind him, and his clean bill of health entering preseason under the new coaching staff positions him for a bounce back season for Chelsea.

Impact Palmer beat the goalkeeper with a low shot from outside the box at the near post during the 56th minute in the week 38 defeat. The goal ended a frustrating 12-game stretch without a goal or assist for the attacking midfielder. Despite missing a significant portion of the first half of the season through injury, he finished with 10 league goals, tying Enzo Fernandez for second on the team in that category. Still, a disappointing end to the campaign ultimately cost him his place in England's World Cup roster.

Won't be at World Cup Palmer was not included in England's World Cup squad and will now look to end a season heavily disrupted by injuries on a positive note in Sunday's finale against Sunderland.

Impact Palmer's omission from the national team is a notable development for a player who had been one of the most exciting talents in the Premier League before injuries repeatedly interrupted his campaign. The Chelsea playmaker contirbuted 10 goals, three assists, 72 shots and 32 chances created across 32 appearances (28 starts) in all competitions this season, and will be motivated to produce a strong performance against Sunderland as he looks ahead to a fully fit and uninterrupted 2026/27 campaign.

Quiet during FA Cup final Palmer registered two crosses in Saturday's 1-0 FA Cup loss to Manchester City.

Impact Palmer was mainly held in check by his former club Saturday, as the attacker only recorded two crosses in the attack to go along with a tackle. This continues a quiet second half of the season for him, as his last goal came March 4. This is not a good sign for the attacker with the England national team selection for the World Cup around the corner, although he has still recorded nine goals and one assist in 24 appearances (22 starts) this season.

Fails to break through Palmer recorded five shots (two on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Monday's 3-1 defeat versus Nottingham Forest.

Impact Palmer did put two of his five shots on frame but the forward was quite wasteful in the final third against an opponent who is starting to round into form late in the year. Palmer gets a neutral matchup against Liverpool in the next game, as the Reds have conceded 47 goals in 35 domestic matches.

Remains on bench Palmer (hamstring) is on the bench for Sunday's clash with Leeds United in the FA Cup.

Impact Palmer is still on the bench for Sunday's clash despite training in part earlier in the week. The midfielder wasn't deemed fit enough for the FA Cup semifinal, and is only a bench option. If he's needed it's likely he would be available to try and change the match in the second half.

Impact Palmer could be in for a return this week, but it will come down to a late fitness test, trying to help his team make an FA Cup final. The attacker's return would be a major boost to the attack, especially after the loss of Estevao (hamstring) for the rest of the season, needing to add one of their key players back. If deemed fit enough to play, Palmer will eye a starting role, trying to end his seven-match slide without a goal contribution.
