Chelsea ace Cole Palmer made history, as he became the highest riser in terms of his price in FPL history as 2024-25 prices were revealed. In previous years, there have been significant price hikes for players, but none is as high as Palmer's.
Trusting in his own talent, Palmer decided to ask for more minutes at Manchester City, a move that earned him a transfer to Chelsea. The England international quickly went from academy prospect to bonafide superstar, ending the season with 22 goals and 11 assists in the Premier League.
Before joining Chelsea, Cole Palmer cost just £5 million on FPL, a testament to the level he was at at the time. The 22-year-old performed excellently for Chelsea and saw his price rise by a record £5.5 million to £10.5 million for 2024-25.

This article will list the five players with the highest price hikes in FPL history, seeing as Cole Palmer has topped the list.
#5 Gylfi Sigurdsson - Tottenham Hotspur (£4 million hike)
Gylfi Sigurdsson arrived in England in 2012 with Swansea City on loan and quickly made a name for himself at the Welsh side. The Icelandic midfielder joined Tottenham Hotspur at the start of the 2012-13 season and saw his value rise on FPL.
Sigurdsson was valued at £5 million in his first half-season in England, and after several quality performances for Swansea, was named as the league's Player of the Month in March. Upon joining Tottenham, his value rose to £9 million on FPL.
#4 Charlie Adam - Liverpool (£4 million hike)
Scottish midfielder Charlie Adam saw his FPL value rise significantly after starring in the 2010-11 season. The midfielder was nominated for the PFA Player of the Year award after featuring for Blackpool despite the club getting relegated.
Adam joined Liverpool at the start of the 2011-12 season and saw his FPL value jump up massively. He cost only £5 million during his time with Blackpool but saw his value increase by £4 million to £9 million after his move to Liverpool.
#3 Harry Kane - Tottenham Hotspur (£4.5 million hike)
Tottenham Hotspur and England legend Harry Kane also makes the list after his exploits in English football. The striker saw his value rise by £4.5 million after shining for his boyhood club after the 2014-15 season.
Kane cost just £5 million in his first full season as a first-team player, and his performances were impressive enough to earn him a hike. He was named the PFA Young Player of the Year before the 2015-16 season and saw his price rise to £9.5 million.
#2 Andy Carroll - Liverpool (£5 million hike)
Andy Carroll burst onto the scene in the Premier League with Newcastle United and saw his stocks rise when he joined Liverpool midway through the 2010-11 season. He cost only £5 million in the 2010-11 season before seeing his value rise to £10 million in the 2011-12 season.
Carroll struggled to justify his hefty FPL price tag in the 2011-12 season, scoring just four times in the league. His Liverpool career failed to fully take off, and he saw his FPL value reduce after the season.
#1 Cole Palmer - Chelsea (£5.5 million hike)
The biggest revelation of the 2023-24 season, no one could have predicted how well Cole Palmer performed in his first season at Chelsea. The forward turned heads with his consistent performances, blanking only once in 13 home starts, and recording attacking returns in 15 away games.
Cole Palmer ended the season with the most points in the league after scoring 244 points. He will now cost £10.5 million in the 2024-25 season and is a great choice for captaincy.
