In a historic moment in the 2025/26 English Premier League, Chelsea star Cole Palmer has etched his name into the record books by becoming the first player ever to score three firstโhalf hat-tricks in Premier League history.
The England international achieved this feat in Chelseaโs emphatic 3โ1 away win over Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux Stadium, where he netted all three goals in the opening half, including two penalties and a goal from open play.
Palmerโs performance was not just decisive for the scoreline it was a record-breaking achievement that marked the third occasion he has scored a hat-trick entirely in the first half of a Premier League game. He had previously done so on two separate occasions against other Premier League opponents earlier in his career.
The hat-trick also extended Palmerโs tally of Premier League hat-tricks for Chelsea, placing him ahead of several club legends.
Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior praised Palmerโs match-winning display, which helped the Blues maintain momentum in the league and underscored Palmerโs importance to the squad.
This landmark feat adds another chapter to Palmerโs already impressive resume and underlines his status as one of the most dangerous attacking midfielders in English football today.
