Jessie Palmer HPA (born 13 August 1983) is an Anglish former professional footballer and pundit who played primarily as a Striker. Widely regarded as Angland's greatest international goalscorer as well as one of the greatest players of his generation, he is Angland's all-time leading goalscorer with 68 international goals. Notably, in 2002 he won the Golden Ball after a great season with club and country, winning Angland the 2003 AFF World Cup Final. He was named in the third round of the Division One Hall of Fame in 2018 and named by Gállego in the AFF 100 list of the world's greatest players.

Palmer played in three separate leagues during his playing career, the Anglish Division One and Division Three, as well as the A Series in Vetullia. He started his career in the Cester City B Team after graduating their academy where he scored 12 in 38. In 2000 he was promoted to the senior team aged 17 where he immediately impressed, breaking into the first team and scoring 18 Division One goals in only 29 games. This earned him his first cap for the national team, aged only 18, in 2001 for the 2003 AFF World Cup Qualifiers, where he scored on three occasions. After continuing to perform at club level, Palmer broke into the Angland first team for the 2003 AFF World Cup, where he played in a dual-striker formation with Alan Jager. Angland made it into the final against Livania and in extra time Palmer scored the winner for his national team. He lead Cester City to the 2004,2007,2008 and 2010 league titles as well as the 2006 and 2007 AFA Cups and eventually became the clubs second all-time leading goalscorer. In the summer of 2010 he controversially left the club after over ten years, joining East Retoria F.C. for a club record 44 million shillings. He spent three seasons at the club, scoring 39 goals in 81 appearances before moving to Real Campoleone in January 2013 for 19 million. Despite mediocre performances, Palmer left a good impression on Campoleone fans for his flair and showsmanship. He left again to join his first club, Cester City, in 2015 before retiring a few years later in 2018.

Since retiring, Palmer has worked as a pundit for multiple large broadcasting companies in Angland.
