RB Leipzig are faced with the prospect of competing with two unnamed Premier League sides for the signature of Chelsea talent Tyrique George.
According to Caught Offside, Chelsea’s Tyrique George is expected to leave the club before the window shuts, and there are quite a few suitors chasing the attacker. RB Leipzig are keen on the young talent but are faced with the prospect of competing with two unnamed Premier League sides for the 19-year-old Chelsea attacking prodigy’s signature.
Chelsea have been aggressive in the transfer window, and with their focus set on improving their attacking setup, few players may find it difficult to break through into this team. For instance, Tyrique George’s future has been a subject of discussions around the club’s circles, with the young winger expected to depart before the window shuts.
Chelsea considers George a top talent who could help them in the future. However, the player is thinking about playing time and is now considering an exit. RB Leipzig had enquired about the player a while back, and it appears they asked for him during negotiations with Chelsea for the sale of Xavi Simons.
Leipzig have a terrific track record of developing young players and could make a sensible pitch for the 19-year-old Chelsea attacking prodigy. However, they are set to compete with two unnamed Premier League teams for the signature of the young attacker; the identities of those two clubs remain under wraps.
Borussia Dortmund were interested earlier, but it appears they are on course to sign Carney Chukwuemeka and Aaron Anselmino from Chelsea in the coming period. As for George, he could consider his options before the window shuts, as Leipzig remains hopeful of striking an agreement with the club and player.
Tyrique George’s options ahead of the transfer deadline
George could consider the Leipzig approach, and could also be tempted by a switch to another Premier League side. Meanwhile, Everton were keen earlier, but that was before inching closer to the signing of Southampton’s Tyler Dibling.
Meanwhile, Chelsea could also ponder sending him on loan elsewhere, with Strasbourg still an option. The two clubs can do one more transfer between them as per the rules, which does keep the option open, as the player is destined to depart the club one way or another before the window shuts.
