The “Cold” Celebration: Unpacking Cole Palmer’s Signature Move
Chelsea forward Cole Palmer has been on fire this season, scoring six goals in just seven Premier League games. But it’s not just his impressive form that’s got fans talking – it’s also his unique celebration, dubbed the “cold” move. In a recent interview with the Telegraph, Palmer revealed the story behind his signature gesture.
A Nod to His Roots
Palmer first busted out the “cold” celebration last December in a game against Luton, where Chelsea emerged victorious with a 3-2 win. As it turns out, the move is a tribute to his former City academy teammate Morgan Rogers. “It symbolises joy, passion, and hard determination for the game,” Palmer explained. “Plus, it’s funny as it works well with my name.” The celebration has since become synonymous with Palmer, and he’s thrilled to have made it his own.
A Season of Accolades
Palmer’s impressive form has earned him numerous individual awards, including England Men’s Player of the Year and Premier League Player of the Month for September. But he’s not resting on his laurels – he’s got his sights set on even bigger prizes. Last month, Palmer was included on the 30-man Ballon d’Or shortlist, a recognition that caught him off guard. “It was a surprise to be recognised at that level so early in my career,” he said. “Winning it would be brilliant, and I believe with hard work and consistency I could get there.”
Chelsea Looks to Continue Winning Ways
As Chelsea prepares to face Liverpool on Sunday, Palmer and his teammates are focused on maintaining their positive start to the season under new boss Enzo Maresca. With Palmer leading the charge, Chelsea fans have every reason to be optimistic about their team’s chances. Will Palmer’s “cold” celebration make an appearance on Sunday? Only time will tell, but one thing’s for sure – the young forward is on a hot streak that shows no signs of slowing down.
