Chelsea Transfers: 5 Players Frank Lampard Should Consider For Derby County
5. Kasey Palmer
Kasey Palmer has already played in the black and white of Derby County, spending the second half of last season on loan at Pride Park. The 21 year old impressed in 14 league appearances operating as an attacking midfielder, and scoring a crucial goal in The Rams' 2-2 draw with Leeds in February.
This was not Palmer's first loan away from Chelsea. The youngster spent the previous season with Huddersfield, making 24 appearances and helping the team earn promotion to the Premier League, but lasted just six months in The Terriers' top flight season before making the switch to Pride Park.
This kind of experience will be invaluable to a promotion chasing club like Derby, particularly since he knows what it takes to make it out of the playoffs smiling. Re-signing Palmer should be a priority for Lampard, especially since there will be competition for his signature from Premier League sides Newcastle and Huddersfield.
