Cole Palmer was sent off in Chelsea's defeat to Tottenham and the England international has now posted an apology on social media

Cole Palmer has posted a 12-word apology after the Chelsea star was sent off in the 2-0 loss to Tottenham Hotspur.

Palmer had already received a yellow card for barging into Mateus Fernandes when he received his marching orders by referee Chris Kavanagh for catching Conor Gallagher late with 10 minutes left. It means the 24-year-old will miss the Carabao Cup clash with Liverpool on Wednesday.

Taking to Instagram on Sunday, Palmer issued an apology. He said: "Not good enough by me. Live n learn! Apologies. Onto the next."
