The Premier League club confirmed that 22-year-old Palmer, who joined Chelsea from Manchester City in a £42.5million deal last September, has committed himself to the Blues until June 2033.
“I’m delighted to sign this new deal,” Cole told Chelsea’s official website.
“I achieved a lot in my first season here, and hopefully I can continue to experience great things at this club, both on a personal level and in terms of bringing success and trophies to Chelsea.”
Palmer enjoyed a standout campaign last season, scoring 22 Premier League goals.
The forward was part of the England squad that reached the final of Euro 2024, where he scored an equaliser after coming off the bench in the defeat against Spain.
Palmer netted 25 times in all competitions for Chelsea last term and was named Premier League young player of the year.
His goal tally included Premier League hat-tricks in successive games at Stamford Bridge against Manchester United and Everton.
