Chelsea star Palmer has opened up on his last conversation with Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola before he exited the club in the last summer window.

Recall that Palmer left the Premier League champions in the summer in a transfer deal worth £42.5m.

However, the Blues star in an interview with Mail Sport, the 21-year-old has opened up on the ultimatum Guardiola gave him.

“Initially I didn’t want to leave. I said I would go on loan and play for a year so I was ready for first-team football more because I didn’t play a lot of minutes [last season].

“But then Pep said “You’re either staying or you’re getting sold” and, so yeah, I just got sold.

“I was a bit confused why they wouldn’t let me go on loan but [then] I said I wanted to go to Chelsea and I’m glad it’s turned out the way it has,” Palmer said.
