Fulham have agreed a 22m fee to sign 19-year-old winger Tyrique George from Chelsea, and the player is in talks over a five-year contract at Craven Cottage with a sell-on clause for Chelsea. George can play as a winger or striker and scored three goals with five assists in 27 first-team appearances since last season. Interest from RB Leipzig did not result in an official offer. Fulham's potential record signing Kevin is in doubt after Sporting matched a 34m bid, while AC Milan's Samuel Chukwueze has completed a medical and is expected to join before the window closes. Fulham sit 18th with two points from three games.
Fulham have agreed a 22m fee to sign winger Tyrique George from Chelsea. The 19-year-old is in talks over a five-year contract at Craven Cottage, while Chelsea have a sell-on clause included in the deal. George, who is primarily a winger but can also play as a striker, was the subject of interest from German club RB Leipzig on deadline day, but they are not known to have made any official offer to Chelsea.
The move comes amid the potential collapse of what would have been Fulham's record signing, with the 34m deal for Shakhtar Donetsk's Brazilian winger Kevin in doubt after Portuguese club Sporting matched the bid. Kevin, 22, had been offered a five-year deal by Fulham. However, AC Milan winger Samuel Chukwueze has completed a medical and is expected to join Fulham before the transfer window closes at 19:00 BST on Monday.
