Cole Palmer hits gym less than 48 hours after Euro 2024 final heartache as Chelsea star gets straight back to work
CHELSEA star Cole Palmer returned to work immediately after England’s Euro 2024 heartbreak.
The Three Lions came close to their first major honour since 1966 on Sunday but lost 2-1 to Spain in the final.
Palmer, 22, scored the national team’s equaliser on 73 minutes to cancel out Nico Williams’ opener but the Furia Roja snatched victory with Mikel Oyarzabal’s late winner.
The England stars were left gutted after yet another Euro heartbreak after losing to Italy on penalties last time out at Wembley in 2021.
However, Palmer went back to work just 48 hours later as he hit the gym hard.
The playmaker shared a story on Instagram showing him lifting weights.
The Chelsea star worked on his triceps and biceps in his bid to get ready for pre-season.
Palmer also issued the following caption along with the clip: “Straight back to it.”
England fans insisted the ex-Manchester City star should have been part of Gareth Southgate‘s line-up throughout the entire tournament.
The forward played in five out of seven Euro 2024 matches and never started.
This comes after a stunning season with Chelsea on his maiden campaign at Stamford Bridge.
Palmer amassed a staggering total of 25 goals and 15 assists in 45 appearances.
And he now counts two goals in nine caps for England after the Euros.
