Cole Palmer set to make millions thanks to trademark which will have major impact on the footballing world
Cole Palmer could be set to pocket a fortune by doing a simple thing – and it may surprise fans.
Palmer, 22, has been in fine form this season, having registered 11 goals and six assists in 15 league appearances.
Many people questioned his decision to leave Manchester City for Chelsea in September 2023, with Palmer penning a seven-year deal at the London-based club.
However, since then, he has gone from strength to strength, earning him a call-up to Gareth Southgate's England squad at Euro 2024 and a two-year extension to his Chelsea contract, which will keep him at the club until 2033.

According to reports from the Metro, he earns £130,000 per week, up £50,000 from his previous £80,000 weekly earnings.
With Palmer’s popularity soaring over the past year or so, he has also been seen working with brands such as Burberry and EA, which have no doubt supplemented his earnings.
But he is set to earn more cash from his latest exploit.
According to The Sun, documents reveal that he has “made moves” to own the term ‘Cold Palmer’ which is a reference to his 'Cold' celebration.
The report also suggests that he could use the term to create revenue streams through selling alcohol, food, clothes, toys, aftershave, cosmetics and more.
The proposed application to the Government’s Intellectual Property Office is thought to have included a video of his celebration.
Palmer first used the now iconic celebration during Chelsea’s 3-2 win against Luton at Kenilworth Road last season.
But, as fans may know, Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers also employs the same celebration. However, considering the pair are close friends, Palmer will likely allow him to carry on using it.
The Chelsea star did actually admit that the former Middlesbrough man used the celebration first.
“My boy Morgz [Rogers] did one for Middlesbrough, so I told him I’d do it too if I scored,” Palmer said previously.
“I'll let him [Cole Palmer] have it,” Rogers told TNT Sports after Villa's 1-0 UEFA Champions League win over Bayern Munich in October.
“He's scored 40 goals or something stupid. Can't really argue with that, can I?”
