Cole Palmer has reportedly signed a lucrative deal with Amazon Prime Video to star in a documentary about England's next generation of football talent.
Filming on the four-part series has already begun and will premiere in the spring of this year.
Palmer, 22, became a household name last season in a breakthrough year for Chelsea and being England's impact man off the bench at Euro 2024.
The twinkle-fingered striker gave the nation hope with a stunning goal against Spain in the final just three minutes after coming on, but the Three Lions were snubbed on the occasion.
Now the documentary will follow his progress, as well as that of other English stars, as they look to bring football home, according to the sun.
A source told the outlet: 'Amazon was desperate to get Cole. It is one of the most popular properties in the world.
Cole Palmer has reportedly signed a six-figure deal to star in an Amazon documentary about England.
The Chelsea star is one of the country's great hopes and scored in the Euro 2024 final.
Palmer, 22, has enjoyed a prolific season and a half with Chelsea and has become a household name.
“The series will lift the veil on his life so far, feature exclusive footage and help him connect with fans on a new level.”
Sources from the Football Federation would have given the green light for the project to take off.
“They know how important players like Cole will be if England are to end a 60-year wait for a major trophy,” a Sun source added.
“Cole is very reserved, but you have to find a balance, given the special talent he has. He is excited and wants the fans to get to know him. He is just a normal kid. He loves football and in his free time he is a genius of the FIFA.
Amazon's football documentaries have proven to be a hit in recent years, including its All or Nothing series featuring Manchester City, Tottenham and Arsenal.
Palmer's on-screen antics have been mainly limited to scoring goals so far (he's already scored 39 in less than 18 months at Chelsea), but he occasionally shows off his personality off the field.
A clip of him singing Vybz Kartel's Jamaican dancehall reggae song Clarks once went viral in a nod to his West Indian roots.
She has also modeled for Burberry and last year the brand released a nine-minute video of Palmer silently fishing while donning a £2,490 duffle coat.
Amazon's football documentaries have proven popular and they also live stream some Premier League matches.
Earlier this month, he filed an application to trademark his shaky 'Cold Palmer' celebration, which has proven to be a signal of condemnation for rival fanbases across the country.
England are among the favorites to lift the World Cup in 2026 and have hired tournament specialist Thomas Tuchel to lead the team.
Tuchel and Palmer did not cross paths at Chelsea, but the German coach won the Champions League just months after taking charge of the Blues in 2021.
