Chelsea Set €30m Price Tag for Tyrique George as Roma Face Tough Negotiations

Chelsea want €30 million for young winger Tyrique George. This makes it hard for AS Roma to sign him as they talk with Chelsea. Roma want a permanent transfer. But their budget might not be enough.

WHAT HAPPENED?

AS Roma asked Chelsea about signing 19-year-old Tyrique George after they stopped trying to get Jadon Sancho. Chelsea want €30 million plus extra fees and a sell-on clause. They don’t want a loan because they have just one international squad spot left. Roma’s budget is lower. Reports say they can only pay €20-£17 million for the England U20 winger. Chelsea got interest from two Premier League clubs and German teams who may pay more. According to reports, both AS Roma and Chelsea are open to a permanent deal involving a sell-on clause for Tyrique George.

CHELSEA AND ROMA’S SEASON SO FAR

This summer, Chelsea built a young team and made big sales. Now, they are 4th in the Premier League with 4 points in two matches. Tyrique George played twice as a substitute, totaling 52 minutes, scoring two goals in pre-season. Notably, George made eight Premier League appearances last season, scoring twice and adding one assist. Roma won their opener in the Serie A as the team will want to improve on last season’s 5th place finish under new coach Gian Piero Gasperini. They missed out on Jadon Sancho earlier and now focus on George as they rebuild their attack.

WHAT’S NEXT IN THE TRANSFER SAGA?

The transfer situation is still open. Chelsea want a permanent deal, and Roma must decide if they can pay more. Roma faces competition from English and German teams with the transfer window closing soon. Chelsea’s next Premier League match is against Fulham, who have two draws in their two opening matches. Roma play Pisa, who drew their opener at Atalanta. Both teams want to strengthen their squads to improve their league positions as games continue. AS Roma are trying hard to sign Tyrique George amid competition from RB Leipzig and other Bundesliga teams, as they look to resolve their transfer negotiations.
