Former Chelsea Captain Frank Leboeuf Criticizes Club Owners Over Cole Palmer Transfer Strategy
Frank Leboeuf, a former Chelsea player who once wore the captain’s armband, has openly criticized the club’s current owners, suggesting that their primary focus is on making money rather than achieving results on the pitch.
Leboeuf believes that the owners would consider selling Cole Palmer if a significant offer, like £100 million, were made, emphasizing their business-driven approach.
Leboeuf stated that if Chelsea received a high offer for Palmer, they would be likely to sell him because, in his view, their priority is financial gain rather than the club’s success. He drew comparisons to other clubs, such as Manchester United and Liverpool, where he feels the owners are also primarily motivated by profit.
He also mentioned that it wouldn’t make sense for Real Madrid to buy Palmer, as they already have Jude Bellingham, suggesting that Palmer would likely end up on the bench if he were to join the Spanish club.
Leboeuf’s comments reflect his ongoing dissatisfaction with Chelsea’s ownership and their perceived focus on financial gain over footballing success.
