Cole Palmer was surprised to find U.S. President Donald Trump on the stand as Chelsea received the Club World Cup trophy after a 3-0 win over Paris Saint-Germain.

Donald Trump arrived at the MetLife Stadium as the man upon whom the world’s gaze alights every day – although for 90 minutes at least the president of the United States had to watch while another took centre stage.

Cole Palmer admitted he was “confused” as to why Donald Trump remained on stage for Chelsea ’s Club World Cup trophy lift. The President of the United States was in attendance at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium on Sunday as Chelsea beat Paris Saint-Germain 3-0 to win the inaugural edition of the 32-team Club World Cup.
