Chelsea‘s Tyrique George is likely to leave the club before the transfer window closes. Several clubs are reportedly interested in the young attacker. RB Leipzig are keen, but face competition from two unnamed Premier League sides for the 19-year-old’s signature. The player’s future has been a talking point at Chelsea, with a departure expected.
Premier League clubs show interest in Tyrique George
Chelsea reportedly consider George a top talent for the future. However, the player wants more playing time and is considering a move. RB Leipzig previously inquired about George, even raising the topic during negotiations for Xavi Simons.
Leipzig have a reputation for developing young players. As a result, they could make a strong case for the Chelsea attacking prodigy. However, they will have to compete with two unnamed Premier League teams for the player. The identities of these clubs are currently unknown.
RB Leipzig compete for Chelsea winger
Borussia Dortmund were previously interested in George. However, they are now reportedly close to signing Carney Chukwuemeka and Aaron Anselmino from Chelsea. George will consider his options before the window closes. Leipzig remain optimistic about reaching an agreement with both the club and the player.
George might consider a move to Leipzig. He could also be tempted by a switch to another Premier League side. Everton were previously interested. However, that was before they moved closer to signing Tyler Dibling from Southampton.
Chelsea consider loan move for attacking prodigy
Chelsea could also consider sending George on loan. Strasbourg remains a possible destination. The two clubs are able to complete one more transfer between them under current regulations. This keeps the loan option open, as the player is expected to leave the club before the window closes.
The situation surrounding the 19-year-old Chelsea attacker remains fluid. Whether he chooses a Bundesliga path with RB Leipzig, stays in the Premier League with an unnamed suitor, or opts for a loan to Strasbourg, his future will be decided soon.
