Cole Palmer’s debut season at Stamford Bridge has been nothing short of remarkable, particularly when it comes to his accuracy from the penalty spot. Since his move from Manchester City in August, the young forward has quickly made his mark, matching Jorginho’s best and closing in on Frank Lampard’s club record for Chelsea.

In the 2023/24 season, Palmer has already notched up an impressive tally of 34 goal involvements, with 21 goals and 13 assists across all competitions. His proficiency from penalties is especially noteworthy, with 16 of his goals in the Premier League coming from the spot.

A standout moment came in Chelsea’s thrilling 4-3 victory over Manchester United, where Palmer netted two penalties to complete his first hat-trick for the club. This achievement surpassed Jorginho’s previous record, making Palmer the second-highest scorer of penalties in a single Premier League season for Chelsea.

However, Palmer’s sights are set even higher as he aims to close in on Lampard’s remarkable feat of 10 Premier League penalties in the 2009/10 season. While he still has a way to go to match Lampard’s overall record of 41 Premier League penalties, Palmer’s 100% success rate from the spot showcases his precision and composure under pressure.

Notably, Palmer’s prowess from penalties has outshone many other top-flight teams, with Chelsea leading the pack in terms of penalties awarded and converted. With his relentless focus and clinical finishing, Palmer has emerged as a formidable threat from the spot, ready to punish any opposition with his lethal accuracy.

As Chelsea prepares to face Everton in their next match, Palmer’s penalty prowess serves as a warning to opponents: any indiscretion in the box will be swiftly punished by the rising star, as he continues his quest to etch his name into Chelsea’s record books.
