Chelsea have been active in the transfer window, with several players likely to leave before it closes. Tyrique George has sought a move to secure regular first-team football. RB Leipzig showed interest, but George is set to remain in the Premier League, joining west London rivals Fulham. Fulham and Chelsea have agreed a deal worth a £22m package plus a sell-on clause, with personal terms agreed on a five-year contract for the England youth international. George will travel to Craven Cottage for medical tests ahead of signing. Chelsea retained a sell-on clause, allowing potential future return at a reduced price. The move positions George as an important player for Marco Silva.
As reported by David Ornstein, Fulham have reached an agreement with Chelsea to sign George, who already has personal terms in place with Marco Silva's side. The teenager will now travel to Craven Cottage for medical tests ahead of signing his contract. EXCL: Fulham strike agreement with Chelsea to sign Tyrique George. Deal for 19yo winger worth 22m package + sell-on clause. Personal terms in place on 5yr contract for England youth international. Permission given (by) CFC to do FFC medical.
Chelsea have retained a sell-on clause as part of the agreement, so they will continue to keep an eye on his progress at Fulham and it means that he could return in the future for a reduced price. It is a deal that suits all parties, and especially George, who is sure to be an important player for Silva. It will be interesting to see what further business is done by Chelsea before the summer transfer window closes at 7pm.
