The hero of the last Club World Cup final, Cole Palmer, immediately visited his homeland after winning with the Chelsea team. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The legal forward's ancestors are from the island of Saint Kitts and Nevis, which is considered a historical colony of Great Britain. Although official independence was declared in 1983, the island still retains unique cultural and political ties.
Palmer was warmly welcomed at home, and even the country's Prime Minister took the time to meet with the London club player. Palmer has been playing for Chelsea since 2023.
Although he plays for the England national team, the player's boots feature the flag of Saint Kitts and Nevis. This shows his respect and connection to his homeland.
Thus, Cole Palmer is recognized not only as a bright representative of English football but also as an athlete loyal to his roots. His activities play an important role not only in the sports field but also in strengthening cultural ties.
