Chelsea have agreed a deal to sell academy graduate Tyrique George to Everton for a fee that could rise to £24 million. The winger, who spent a successful loan spell at Goodison Park last season, has impressed Everton manager David Moyes, prompting the Merseyside club to make the move permanent.
Deal Structure and Add-Ons
According to Standard Sport, the transfer consists of an initial £18 million payment, with an additional £6 million available in performance-related add-ons. Chelsea have also negotiated a 15 percent sell-on clause as part of the agreement, ensuring they benefit from any future sale of the player.
The club-to-club agreement was reached after Everton expressed a strong desire to secure George on a permanent basis from the outset of the summer transfer window. Personal terms have now been agreed between the player and Everton, finalising the move.
Impact on Both Clubs
For Chelsea, the sale represents a significant return on an academy product, while Everton gain a promising winger who has already demonstrated his ability under Moyes. George's loan spell last season was described as positive, contributing to Everton's decision to pursue a permanent deal.
Further details of the contract are expected to be announced once the transfer is officially completed.
