Cole Palmer parties in Ibiza as O Beach Club throws him lavish 'champion' celebration after Chelsea's Club World Cup win - just days since he and his girlfriend Connie Grace unfollowed each other on social media
Last week Mail Sport joined Cole Palmer as he visited his ancestral home of St Kitts in the Caribbean and now he is living it up at the Ocean Beach Club.
The Chelsea star is enjoying some precious time off after scoring two goals in the final of the Club World Cup, which the Blues won 3-0 against PSG.
And Palmer was pictured lounging on a sofa with O Beach founder Tony Truman and his daughter, Kiki Truman, 20, who he had with Eastenders legend Charlie Brooks.
Palmer was decked out with a chain, a plain white tee-shirt, camouflage shorts, and trainers.
Even the couch they were sat on tapped into the hedonism of the destination, with Grey Goose vodka's logo adorning the design.
The Ocean beach club threw a celebratory party for the 'world champ' after Chelsea's Club World Cup triumph
In spectacular fashion, O Beach threw a special celebration for Palmer, hiring dancers to hold up letter signs spelling out 'world champ' and dancing for him.
Ibiza is a popular haunt for the 23-year-old - last summer he was spotted with his girlfriend Connie Grace, who he met aged 17 in Manchester.
However, the duo have unfollowed each other on Instagram in recent days, leading to speculation that they have split up.
It has been an eventful summer for Palmer, who wore a look of bewilderment as Donald Trump gatecrashed Chelsea's Club World Cup trophy lift at the MetLife Stadium.
'I knew he was going to be here but I didn't know he was going to be on the stand when we lifted the trophy so I was a bit confused, yeah,' he admitted.
At least he has some time to get over that confusion until his next engagement with Chelsea, who begin their pre-season against Bayer Leverkusen on August 8.
Due to the fact the Club World Cup occupied them until mid-July, the Blues will only have the Leverkusen friendly and one against AC Milan before their Premier League season kicks off against Crystal Palace on August 17.
Palmer does not need to worry about that tight squeeze for now and has been letting his hair down in Ibiza, which is a popular haunt for the football crowd.
Palmer's partner Grace jetted out to the US while he was playing in the tournament
He scored 18 goals in all competitions last season as Chelsea also won the Conference League
Jack Grealish is one of the many footballers who travels to O Beach to enjoy his time away from the game
Liverpool boss Arne Slot was kissed on the cheek by Wayne Lineker on a trip to the club
Lineker is known for partying his way through the summer with hundreds of guests each day
Arne Slot was seen celebrating Liverpool's title out there in May while the likes of Jack Grealish, Wayne Rooney, and Frank Lampard have all enjoyed it down the years.
Gary Lineker's brother Wayne was involved in the launch of O Beach in 2012 and has become a popular figure for footballers to spend time with.
Jude Bellingham is one of the latest high-profile footballers to have been welcomed to the venue with open arms by Wayne.
The Real Madrid star, 21, chose to celebrate his brother Jobe's promotion to the Premier League with Sunderland in Ibiza.
Grealish is a regular at Ocean Beach with Lineker once joking about the prospect of a four-week loan deal for the Manchester City man at his beach club, following his omission from the England Euro 2024 squad.

Giants QB Russell Wilson touts Brian Daboll's ‘beautiful mind'
August 7 - He has yet to throw a pass in a game setting for the New York Giants, but new quarterback Russell Wilson, a 10-time Pro Bowler, is already singing the praises of head coach Brian Daboll's offensive knowledge and understanding. He expressed his thoughts on Daboll and other topics while speaking with reporters on Wednesday. "Daboll's got a beautiful mind, how he sees the game, he's coached tremendous football players, he's won Super Bowls, he's been around winning -- national championships, all that stuff," Wilson said. "... I think that the best part is in terms of the knowledge and what we get to share back and forth is pretty cool. "... Just over the years, all my experience, his experience, how we see the game the same way." Wilson also sang the praises of assistant head coach and offensive coordinator Mike Kafka, who will continue calling plays for the Giants in 2025. "Obviously Kaf's played the game, played the position, he sees it like the quarterback does and he's got a great viewpoint of the game," said Wilson. "We get to spend a lot of time together in the quarterback room and I think Kaf is a really brilliant mind, too. "I think the ability to share ideas, the collaboration, is what's really special here." Kafka, with the Giants' coaching staff since 2022, also highlighted the importance of communication with his new pivot. "Yeah, just opening up (those) lines of communication, having dialogue on plays that he likes, things that I like, things that are within the offense already, maybe there's some crossover, maybe there's some new thoughts," said the former journeyman QB. "It's just about opening those lines of communication." After two down years with the Denver Broncos in 2022 and 2023, Wilson started 11 regular-season games for the playoff-bound Pittsburgh Steelers in 2024, posting a 6-5 record while passing for 2,482 yards (225.6 per game), 16 touchdowns and five interceptions. He added another two scores on the ground. Now the 2013 Super Bowl champion is adapting to another new team in New York and transitioning well. "It's going great," said Wilson. "I think guys are working their butts off, man. We're battling every day, going against a really good defense every day, too, so it's even better. "You always want practice to be harder than the games, that mentality of that. ... I think we're getting better every day." Wilson has also expressed his eagerness to play alongside talented second-year receiver Malik Nabers. "I mean, that was (the) first thing I told you guys when I watched him on film. ... It was just his explosiveness," said Wilson of the 2024 sixth overall pick out of LSU. "Once he catches the football, there's only so many people in the world that can do it like he can and I think he's one of the best in the world to do it. "He's going into a second year of it all and it's all fresh and all new, but he's definitely experienced in terms of how he sees the game, his mentality attacking the football in the air. ... It's going to be a special thing. I'm excited to play with him, obviously." At age 36, Wilson added that he's already enjoying playing for his fourth NFL team. "I love this locker room, the guys, just the fellowship that we have together all the way from the lunchroom to the film room after practice," Wilson said. "...It's been great, man. I am truly grateful to be a New York Giant." --Field Level Media

Chelsea step up efforts to sign Garnacho and Simons in attacking reshuffle
Chelsea are to step up attempts to sign Alejandro Garnacho from Manchester United and Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig and could sell Nicolas Jackson, as they continue to reshape their attacking options. The club have brought in Liam Delap, João Pedro and Jamie Gittens, and moves for Garnacho and Simons are understood to be their priority. Garnacho has played no part in United's pre-season and is thought to be available for about £50m, although Chelsea are understood to be reluctant to pay that. The Argentina forward is believed to be keen to move to Stamford Bridge after Ruben Amorim made clear the 21-year-old is not part of his plans at Old Trafford. Chelsea have yet to make an official approach but are likely to do so, with United seeking to balance their books as they close on the signing of Benjamin Sesko from Leipzig. Chelsea are in talks with the German club over Simons, who is understood to have agreed personal terms despite interest from Bayern Munich. The 22-year-old, who can play in several attacking roles, joined Leipzig from Paris Saint-Germain in January for €50m after two successful loan spells. He is expected to cost about €70m (£61m) and Leipzig are targeting Liverpool's Harvey Elliott as a potential replacement. Jackson is understood to prefer to stay at Chelsea despite the arrivals of Delap and Pedro dropping him down the pecking order, but Chelsea are believed to be willing to sell the Senegal striker for the right price. Newcastle could be an option if, as expected, they miss out on Sesko, and Jackson also has interest from Milan and other Italian clubs but Chelsea could demand £80m. Chelsea's 19-year-old Spanish striker Marc Guiu is poised to join Sunderland on loan having completed his medical on Wednesday, and Everton have completed the £28m signing of the midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury‑Hall on a five-year contract. Burnley are closing in on signing Armando Broja for £20m and are likely to pay a similar fee for Lesley Ugochukwu. Borussia Dortmund are also in talks with Chelsea over a permanent deal for Carney Chukwuemeka, who spent part of last season on loan in Germany. Sign up to Football Daily Kick off your evenings with the Guardian's take on the world of football after newsletter promotion Chelsea have sold Kepa Arrizabalaga, Noni Madueke, Djordje Petrovic and João Félix for combined fees that could reach well above £100m. They are also hoping to offload Raheem Sterling, who spent last season on loan at Arsenal and has been linked with clubs in Turkey, together with Axel Disasi, Renato Veiga, Christopher Nkunku and Ben Chilwell. The Netherlands defender Jorrel Hato became Chelsea's latest summer signing when his £37m move from Ajax was confirmed on Sunday.

Lauren Sanchez ditches the heels after struggling to stay on her stiletto-clad feet during treacherous walk across a pebble beach - as she joins husband Jeff Bezos, Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria Ceretti for another double date in Ibiza
ditched her heels on Tuesday as she headed out in Ibiza - after struggling to stay on her stiletto-clad feet during a treacherous walk across a pebble beach on the island the day before. The beauty, 55, was joined by her billionaire Amazon CEO husband Jeff Bezos, 61, for lunch on the party island before heading to their mega luxury yacht. Just a day after bravely teetering over rocky terrain in sky-high stilettos, Lauren kicked off her shoes and went barefoot on the beach and boardwalk. The couple were joined by friends, including the Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio and girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti along with the former Vogue Editor in Chief Edward Enninful. For the day out in the sunshine Lauren looked stylish and showed off her youthful figure in a brown bikini top and crochet white skirt. She added a trendy sunhat and leather bag to her look as she held hands with her husband who wore a smart white linen shirt, chinos and beach sliders. It comes after Jeff and Lauren, who married in Venice just two months ago, enjoyed a day out on the Mediterranean island of Formentera. They were seen relaxing on a tender boat as they were taken to shore ahead of a day spent exploring the smallest of Spain 's Balearic islands. And just days after their double dinner date in neighbouring Ibiza, the couple were again joined by Hollywood star Leo, 50, and his Italian model girlfriend Vittoria, 27. Meanwhile model Vittoria caught the eye in a white racerback vest worn over a patterned bikini, while covering her bikini bottoms with a black and white sarong. As always, Leo covered his face with a medical face mask akin to those worn at the height of the coronavirus pandemic as he departed their tender and headed onto land, wearing a white t-shirt and khaki shorts. Fortunately for Leo and his party, they were only in danger of catching a suntan as they ventured out on the island, where summer temperatures are currently soaring. The appearance came just two days after the group enjoyed a double dinner date in Ibiza after spending time of Jeff's $485 million superyacht. Lauren was determined not to let the terrain dictate her style choices as she appeared to struggle to keep her footing on the rocky shore of Ibiza on Sunday night. However despite the uneven terrain, Lauren didn't forgo her stiletto heels as she clung to Jeff's hand. Joined again by Leo and Vittoria, Lauren oozed style in a cream summer mini dress which she paired with the nude heels. She accessorised the look with a matching cream bag and dark shades as she made it onto land. Meanwhile her husband kept it simple in a white polo shirt, grey trousers and white trainers, slightly more apt for the rocky shore. Yet Leo's girlfriend also joined Lauren in her choice of heels as she was seen teetering in a black pair of kitten heels. The Italian model kept it simple in a black vest top and low waisted black skirt with mesh detailing. Pairing the look with a small black bag, she held hands with the Hollywood actor also wore all black. They held hands after the lunch out Vittoria didn't walk next to Leo They then made their way onto the bigger yacht Leonardo appeared to wish to keep a low profile as he concealed his face with a black face mask and baseball cap. The foursome were also joined by the former editor-in-chief at British Vogue, Edward Enninful. The gang made their way for their Italian-influenced, contemporary Mediterranean stylish dinner at Amalur Ibiza. Jeff and Lauren were previously seen welcoming Leo and Vittoria aboard their superyacht, Koru, earlier in the day on Sunday. The pair know their way around the ship, having previously joined the couple and bevy of stars for a trip last summer in Sardinia.
