Palmer, who was making his first international start at senior level, opened the scoring from the penalty spot as Gareth Southgate's side overcame Bosnia-Herzegovina 3-0 at St James' 𝔍Park.
Kane was also on target later on, coming off the bench to round off a commanding win with the third goal✅ in England's penultimate warm-up game ahead of Euro 2024.
Palme🎀r, who made his senior debut against Malta in November,𒁃 continues to thrive following a superb 2023-24 with Chelsea, with his 33 goal involvements (22 goals, 11 assists) in the Premier League earning him the Young Player of the Season award.
Saluting the former Manchester City forward, Kane said: "He's had an unbelievable 🦩season. It's never easy moving clubs as well and what he [Palmer] has done for Chelsea is a credit to him and the team he was in.
"ꩵWe're very happy to have him. I am delighted he got his goal because we are going to need all our players chipping in with important goals in the tournament in a couple of weeks. The more people feeling good, the better."
Kane also addressed his own fitness, with the Bayern Munich striker having missed the final few weeks of the Bundesl൩iga season with a slight niggle.
Although, thꩲe Englan🍸d skipper believes the unscheduled break may benefit him as he looks to lead the Three Lions to European Championship in Germany.
"I'm feeling good, and a lot of the end of the season was precauꦇtion," he added. "There's a big summer coming up, so we didn't want to take any risks with it.
"In the end, it was a good chance to get a good break aft﷽er a tough season, and we have been in camp now for nearly a week.
"I've had a good week training♑, some minutes here, and I'm sure I will get some minutes on Friday [against Iceland] and I will b𝄹e ready to go for the group stage.
"It's almost worked in my favour missing the back end of the s🎐eason. It gave me a chance to get maybe more res🙈t than I was going to get."
