An old video of Cole Palmer seemingly predicting scoring four goals has gone viral following his remarkable display against Brighton. The 22-year-old England international scored four goals for Chelsea in a thrilling Premier League clash at Stamford Bridge, becoming the first player to score four times before half-time in a single Premier League match.
Palmer’s impressive haul included a first-half hat-trick, with his third goal coming from a stunning free-kick in the 31st minute. He added his fourth goal just 10 minutes later, cementing his place in the record books.
But what’s even more remarkable is that Palmer appeared to predict his four-goal haul in a pre-season shoot with broadcasters. In the video, he’s asked to point three fingers for a hat-trick, but he gestures four goals instead, saying "What about four?"
Well, it looks like Palmer’s prediction came true, and fans are going wild on social media. The former Manchester City player has started the new season in blistering form, netting six goals already this term. With his impressive goal-scoring record, it’s no surprise that he’s attracting attention from fans and pundits alike.
Palmer’s four-goal display has sparked calls for him to be included in Gareth Southgate’s England squad for the upcoming international break. With his form and confidence soaring, it’s hard to argue against him getting the nod.
