- Palmer starred against PSG in the final
- Tried out American food while in New Jersey
- Was not quite impressed with its taste
Following the final, Palmer decided to unwind by exploring a bit of American culture, which included sampling local fast food. However, the experience left him unimpressed. The midfielder was particularly critical of a visit to popular chain Chick-fil-A, singling out one dish that didn’t sit well with his palate.
“I tried Chick-fil-A,” he shared. “It was baked beans. Disgusting. Our UK beans are better.”
Palmer is now using his time off to connect with his family history, taking a meaningful trip to the Caribbean island of St Kitts and Nevis. The tropical destination holds special importance for the young footballer, as it is the birthplace of his grandfather, Sterry Palmer. Upon arriving on the island, Palmer was welcomed with open arms by the local community and government officials.
Palmer will enjoy a short break before turning his attention back to domestic duties. The 英超聯賽 returns in a month, and 切爾西 face a demanding start to their 2025-26 campaign. The Blues will open the season with a series of London derbies, starting with a clash against Crystal Palace. They will then face 西漢姆聯 團結的, 富勒姆, and 布倫特福德 in quick succession.
