ENGLAND and Chelsea star Cole Palmer has proved himself to be cold as ice on the pitch.
But it seems he has also taken steps to reflect that ice cool persona off it as well.
Palmer, who scored for the Three Lions in the final of Euro 2024 after coming off the bench, was spotted wearing a Rolex while in the England camp.
And according to GQ Magazine, the watch in question was a 40mm Rolex Daytona Cosmograph.
The designer watch costs a pocket-heavy £13,200 for a standard version.
However, the 22-year-old’s watch was slightly different.

Rather than a plain white dial, Palmer’s watch had a blue-tint to it, marking it out as a platinum version.
Rolex’s website retails the platinum edition of the watch at a staggering £66,800 – or £72,200 if diamonds are added.
Palmer signed for the Blues from Manchester City last summer before going on to score 27 goals and adding 15 assists in all competitions.
His transfer saw him also land a tidy pay boost from £20,000 a week at the Etihad to £75,000 a week at Stamford Bridge.

So it appears Palmer has used his wage hike to splash out on his swanky new watch.
And we would wager Chelsea fans will argue it was well-earned.
They were also convinced it was a tidy nod to his “chilly” celebration.
Reacting to his new accessory, one fan said: “They told me Cole Palmer has ZERO Aura.”
