Reports suggest Manchester United has placed 19-year-old Chelsea winger Tyrique George on its summer recruitment shortlist.
United is said to be pursuing a youth-driven rebuild, and George’s versatility across the front line makes him an attractive long-term option.
Chelsea’s squad size and financial pressures could increase the likelihood of academy players seeking minutes elsewhere as the window approaches.
Echotitbits take: This looks like a classic ‘buy low, develop, and win big’ play. Chelsea’s squad congestion creates opportunities for rivals, and George could see a clearer pathway at Old Trafford than in West London—if United can sell him a coherent project.
