Chelsea star Cole Palmer tried to keep a low profile during his visit to a popular Christmas attraction in London, but the presence of a young woman who caught all eyes was a no-brainer.
Although the 23-year-old attacking midfielder of the “Blues” had covered his face with a balaclava, either to avoid recognition, his effort was not successful. Palmer was spotted at Winter Wonderland in London, enjoying some relaxing moments away from the pitch.
Cole Palmer, first public appearance with Olivia Holder
Alongside him was Olivia Holder, a model with an active social media presence. According to eyewitnesses, their outing looked more like a romantic date than just a friendly one. The footballer took part in the amusement park games, winning large teddy bears for his companion, according to The Sun.
Speculation about their relationship was heightened when Holder recently published a photograph from the stands at 'Stamford Bridge'. Her post sparked excitement among Chelsea fans, who humorously commented that she was “lucky” after Palmer scored his first goal in nearly two months.
She appears to be around the team a lot, as she also shared snaps from a bar in Cobham, the area where the club's training facility is located. Although she doesn't have a huge Instagram following, her lifestyle seems cosmopolitan, with trips to destinations such as Dubai, Monaco, Greece and Tenerife during the year.
After being sidelined for more than a month with a toe injury, Cole Palmer made 3 appearances in December, 30 minutes in the 1-3 defeat to Leeds, 58 minutes in the whitewash draw with Bournemouth and 58 minutes in the 2-0 win over Everton, a game in which Palmer scored a goal, right in front of his new girlfriend, who watched the game from the stands on “Stamford Bridge”.
