Everton are in discussions to complete a permanent move for Chelsea winger Tyrique George following his loan spell. Multiple reports say the deal is progressing and could be concluded within the current week. The Athletic notes that Everton did not exercise a £25 million ($33 million) option that would have automatically converted the loan into a permanent transfer. Instead, the clubs continue to negotiate terms for a permanent agreement. BBC Sport and Yahoo Sports both describe Everton as being close to finalising the permanent transfer, building on George’s time at Everton during the loan period. While the specific structure of the revised agreement is not detailed in the provided reports, all outlets indicate that talks remain active and the transfer is approaching a decision date. No source cited suggests the move has been completed, and the overall picture presented is of an ongoing negotiation that is likely to be finalised soon.
