London Stunner: Fulham Beat European Clubs to Chelsea Youngster

Chelsea've reached full agreement with London rivals Fulham over the transfer of 19 year old winger Tyrique George for fee of 22 million sterling pound with sell on clause included for any future sale.

From Cobham to Craven Cottage

George who's been part of Chelsea’s academy since 2014 is set to sign 5 year contract with Fulham.

According to The Sun, the teenager's already been cleared to undergo his medical at Craven Cottage.

Interest From Europe Ends Quickly

The winger had been linked with Roma and RB Leipzig late in the transfer window.

However Fulham moved fast to secure his services after talks with the Italian side collapsed & Leipzig pulled out of the race.

Breakthrough at Chelsea

George made his senior debut in April 2024 under Mauricio Pochettino and became useful squad option for Enzo Maresca last season particularly in Conference league where he played 26 match and scored 3 goal.

Why the Move Made Sense

With Chelsea’s attack reinforced by new signings Jamie Bynoe Gittens & Alejandro Garnacho competition for places has intensified.

George's chosen Fulham to secure regular playing time and continue his development in the PL.
