Kasey Remel Palmer (born 9 November 1996) is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Huddersfield Town, on loan from Chelsea. He also plays for England U21's.
Palmer joined Charlton Athletic at the age of nine, and featured for the club for the majority of his youth career. Having represented his nation at youth level, Palmer attracted interest from Chelsea and made the move in March 2013. Due to their academy status, the Blues were able to sign Palmer for only a small compensation fee.
Making a handful of appearances for the Under-18s during the remainder of his inaugural season, Palmer became an influential figure in Adi Viveash’s side for the 2013–14 while making sporadic appears from the bench for the Under-19s and Under-21s.
His first success came with the Under-21s, when he made appearances in the semi-final and final of the end-of-season playoffs before Dermot Drummy’s team were named league champions. He later featured as a substitute in every round of the club’s successful FA Youth Cup campaign while netting twice.
He also played in all four UEFA Youth League knockout ties, while scoring against Zenit St Petersburg in the second round before the Blues lifted the cup. The 2015–16 season also proved successful for Palmer, who scored three goals in five matches as they retained their crown.
Tipped as one of the academies most promising talents, Palmer signed a new contract in February 2016, which committed his future to the club until the end of the 2018–19 season. He was given his first taste of senior football under manager Guus Hiddink, being named as an unused substitute against Swansea City in April 2016.
