From Poverty to Promise: An Extraordinary Journey
Byline: John Smith
Manchester City star Cole Palmer's grandfather, Sterry Cole, has spoken for the first time about his family's extraordinary journey from poverty to the pinnacle of English football.
In an exclusive interview with MailOnline, Sterry revealed the painful struggles endured by his family, including the loss of Cole's father at a young age. Despite these hardships, the family remained determined to build a better life for Cole and his siblings.
Born on May 6, 2002, in Wythenshawe, Manchester, Cole's ancestors moved to England from St. Kitts decades earlier. Sterry, himself a former footballer, instilled a love of the game in his grandson from an early age.
Cole's talent and dedication eventually caught the attention of Manchester City, where he joined the academy at the age of eight. He has since progressed through the ranks, making his senior debut in 2020 and becoming a first-team regular in the 2021/22 season.
Sterry's pride in his grandson's accomplishments is evident, but he also acknowledges the challenges they have overcome together. "We've come a long way from where we started," he said. "But we've always stuck together, and that's what's brought us through."
Cole's story serves as an inspiration to young players everywhere, demonstrating that with determination and hard work, anything is possible. It is also a testament to the power of family, love, and support.
