Chelsea will almost certainly have points deducted and they are having to find a way to escape, even if they have to sell Cole Palmer.
The story of points deduction in the Premier League is causing a stir because some teams are in the dangerous group. Based on financial laws and the new way of handling cases applied from this season, the Premier League has deducted points from Everton and Nottingham Forest but they have not stopped.
Billionaire Todd Boehly’s Chelsea lost more than £200 million in the past two seasons, causing them to fall into the points deduction group.
Everton may be further deducted at the end of this season while Leicester City, even though they are in the Championship, face the risk of starting next season with a negative score whether they play in the Championship or are promoted to the Premier League. But most notable are the two giants Man City and Chelsea. Man City, as most readers know, was accused of 115 financial violations over a long period of time and is expected to go to trial this year.
Chelsea, after the “wild” transfer periods since changing ownership, is also in a dangerous position because their losses not only exceed the allowable limit and for many seasons, “The Blues” have also been accused of not declaring fees for player brokers in the annual financial report (this happened when the club was still owned by Roman Abramovich). So it’s possible that Chelsea still hasn’t been hit with penalties after being deducted points.

“It is difficult for them to escape the current situation unless they manage in the most creative ways in the transfer market. But even that is very difficult to do, Premier League clubs not only know that Chelsea can have points deducted, but they can also contribute to that by forcing prices when buying Chelsea players,” Mr. Wyness commented. essay.
“Chelsea has not yet announced the financial results of this season, but they will not be able to prolong it forever. Even if they submit the report on time after thinking of every possible solution, the point deduction will still come and in my opinion it will be the end of this year.”
Cole Palmer is currently the best player in Chelsea’s post-Abramovich transfers
Speaking of management, some British newspapers said that Chelsea is considering selling their most valuable players at the moment and one of them is Cole Palmer, the team’s best football player from the beginning of the season. Palmer just moved to Chelsea this season to earn a starting spot because he did not trust Pep Guardiola to give him a chance at Man City, and his very good performance is likely to make him the easiest to leave Chelsea.
Chelsea spent 42.5 million pounds to buy Palmer and if they sell, they will ask for a higher fee, possibly up to 85 million pounds. Arsenal, Liverpool and former club Man City all have some interest in Palmer, but it won’t be until the summer that we will know how great that interest is to help shape the price for the 21-year-old star. .
