Paul Scholes, a Manchester United legend, has pointed out a significant obstacle in the club's efforts to sign Cole Palmer from Chelsea. Despite Palmer's recent statement expressing a desire to remain at Chelsea, rumors persist about his potential move to United. Scholes noted that while he would welcome Palmer at United, the presence of Bruno Fernandes creates a dilemma regarding Palmer's position on the field. Palmer, who has faced a decline in form and injuries, has scored nine goals in 20 Premier League starts this season. Ryan Giggs has endorsed the move, suggesting Palmer would complement Fernandes well. Meanwhile, Fernandes is on the verge of breaking the Premier League assist record, currently holding 18 assists, just two shy of the record held by Kevin de Bruyne and Thierry Henry. United's next match is against Brentford, where Fernandes will aim to increase his assist tally.
