Everton have reportedly reached an agreement with Chelsea for the permanent signing of Tyrique George.

According to The Bobble, an agreement was reached with Chelsea on Friday evening and personal terms will now be discussed with the 20-year-old.

The fee involved is undisclosed, though Everton are understood to have negotiated an initial lower fee than the proposed agreement in place for the initial loan. Everton passed on that £25m fee to sign George when his loan spell concluded.

David Moyes is now working to make George his second summer signing, following the arrival of Hayden Hackney from Middlesbrough earlier this week.

The England youth international made 11 appearances after arriving from Chelsea during the January transfer window, though only one of those came from the start.

George has scored six goals in 37 senior appearances for Chelsea and has netted twice in six caps for England at u-21 level. He was named Chelsea's Academy Player of the Year in 2025.

Personally, I'm not convinced with George. If the fee is low, I understand the move. I hope we aren't paying over the odds for him. He will be a squad player come the start of the season and, although I know hes young and could improve, with a limited transfer budget I think we need to be signing players who will come straight in and improve the starting 11

Good move, if we keep signing young players and some of the old fellas depart, Moyes won't have an option but to play a young team.

I'm not doubting George's potential ability I'm more concerned that the manager won't play him to unleash any potential he may have. Wrong manager for the player but right kind of player the club should invest in. When the managers strategy and the clubs recruitment strategy don't align it's just strange.
