Cole Palmer has constantly been making headlines for Chelsea, for a good cause, of course. Palmer broke into the limelight due to his attacking prowess this season.

Palmer leads the team with an impressive 15 goals and eight assists in the Premier League, and remains unmatched going into the next season.

Cole Palmer has constantly shown his prowess to deliver in crucial moments, including his pivotal role in the Conference League final against Real Betis.

The 22-year-old attacking midfielder's standout performances include a four-goal haul against Everton. This made him the first Chelsea player since Frank Lampard to achieve such a feat in a league match.

An injury slowed him down this season, but that does not outshine what he managed to achieve.

2) Nicolas Jackson

Nicolas Jackson has slowly emerged as a reliable goal scorer for Chelsea, scoring 10 goals in the Premier League, and he comes second after Cole Palmer when it comes to the number of goals scored.

He has also been very vital when it comes to assists, but his ability to find the back of the net in key matches, including a hat-trick against Tottenham Hotspur, has solidified his place in the squad.

Nicolas Jackson's partnership with Cole Palmer has been particularly one to admire since it has borne fruit and offered a dynamic threat to opposing defences.

The Senegalese striker was destined to be a star from his debut season with Chelsea, 2023/24. He netted 14 league goals, becoming the second-highest African goal scorer in the Premier League for the 2023/24 season, only behind Mohamed Salah.

3) Pedro Neto

Chelsea’s marquee signing from Wolverhampton Wanderers, Pedro Neto, has not been given enough recognition, but he remains one of the most formidable attackers.

Despite facing some challenges in adapting to his new environment, Neto has contributed four goals and six assists in the Premier League.

He has shown flashes of brilliance on both flanks and has the ability to stretch defences and create opportunities, something that has made him a valuable asset to the team.

4) Enzo Fernández

Enzo Fernández has been a consistent performer in Chelsea's midfield, contributing six goals and seven assists in the Premier League.

Fernández's impact was particularly notable in the UEFA Conference League, where he played a crucial role in Chelsea's journey to the title.

In the final against Real Betis, he scored the equalising goal, setting the stage for a 4-1 comeback victory for Chelsea. His performances earned him a spot in the UEFA Conference League Team of the Season.

Enzo Fernández's contributions were instrumental in Chelsea's achievements during the 2024/2025 season, showcasing his importance to the team's success on both domestic and European fronts.

Noni Madueke cemented his place as one of the best this season, scoring seven goals in the Premier League and is undeniably one of Chelsea's rising stars.

The 22-year-old winger also provided three assists in 14 Premier League appearances, showcasing his ability to take on defenders.

Madueke's standout performance came in a 6-2 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers, where he scored a quick-fire hat-trick in the second half.

He has proven to be energetic and has always displayed a great attacking prowess, adding a new dimension to Chelsea's frontline.

Chelsea's resurgence in the 2024/2025 season can be attributed to the collective efforts of a talented and cohesive squad.

The standout performances of players like Cole Palmer and Moisés Caicedo, among other players, have been instrumental in the team's success.

As Chelsea look forward to future challenges, the foundation has already been laid this season, providing a promising outlook for continued growth and achievement.
