George has been with Chelsea since he was seven but now looks set to leave for west London rivals Fulham Fulham have agreed a £22m fee to sign winger Tyrique George from Chelsea. The 19-year-old is in talks over a five-year contract at Craven Cottage, while Chelsea have a sell-on clause included in the deal. George, who is primarily a winger but can also play as a striker, was the subject of interest from German club RB Leipzig on deadline day, but they are not known to have made any official offer to Chelsea. The teenager is expected to leave Stamford Bridge having scored three goals and delivered five assists in 27 matches since breaking into the first team at the beginning of last season. The move comes amid the potential collapse of what would have been Fulham's record signing, with the £34m deal for Shakhtar Donetsk's Brazilian winger Kevin in doubt after Portuguese club Sporting matched the bid. Kevin, 22, had been offered a five-year deal by Fulham. However, AC Milan winger Samuel Chukwueze has completed a medical and is expected to join Fulham before the transfer window closes at 19: 00 BST on Monday. The new signings would be a boost for Fulham boss Marco Silva, who has previously complained about the club's limited action in the transfer window. Silva said the Cottagers had been "passive" in the summer window, having only added French goalkeeper Benjamin Lecomte from Montpellier. The Cottagers have two points from their opening three Premier League games and are 18th in the table. They followed up opening draws at Brighton and at home to Manchester United with a controversial 2-0 defeat at west London rivals Chelsea.
