Chelsea Secure Long-Term Future of Nigerian Forward

Chelsea announced a contract extension for promising academy forward Tyrique George, keeping him at the club until 2027 with an option for an additional year.

The 18-year-old Nigerian-born talent has impressed with his goal scoring prowess across various Chelsea youth teams.

Last season, he played a key role for both the U18s, who clinched the Premier League South title, and the U21s, making appearances in the Premier League 2 playoffs.

Though representing England at the youth level, George remains eligible to play for Nigeria.
