Roma in Talks with Chelsea Over Tyrique George

AS Roma’s sports chief, Ricky Massara, is in London for important transfer discussions, with a key focus on Chelsea’s young talent, Tyrique George. While other deals are on the table, the negotiation for the promising winger highlights Roma’s intent to strengthen their squad.

The main challenge for Roma is Chelsea’s valuation of the player. Although both clubs are open to a deal, the difference in what one is willing to pay and what the other is asking for remains the central point of the talks.

✈️ Negotiations in London

AS Roma’s sports chief, Ricky Massara, has travelled to London for several important meetings about potential player transfers. While he is scheduled to meet with the representatives of Manchester United’s Jadon Sancho, his talks also include negotiating with Chelsea for winger Tyrique George.

💰 The Sticking Point: Price Tag

Roma is keen on signing George after the player was offered to them by his agent, Emeka Obasi. However, a major hurdle is Chelsea’s asking price. The London club is asking for €20 million, which Roma currently finds too high to meet.

🤔 Chelsea’s Stance on the Transfer

Chelsea seems open to letting George leave, as he is available on the transfer market. Before the talks with Roma, the club had even offered him to Manchester United as part of a potential swap deal for Alejandro Garnacho, indicating they are actively looking for the right arrangement.
