Pre-Chelsea career
Tyrique George joined Chelsea’s Academy at U8 level, having progressed through youth setups at TFA Totteridge. Always technically gifted, he rose quickly through the ranks and trained regularly with the Under-21s by the 2023–24 season. His dedication, extra training sessions, and adaptability—having played as a striker, winger, and No.10—helped carve a swift path to first-team consideration.
Chelsea career
2024–25 Season
Under Enzo Maresca, George made his senior debut in the UEFA Conference League play-off against Servette. His breakout moment came in April 2025, when his first-team goal in the quarter-final against Legia Warsaw marked the turning point in his campaign. He followed it up by scoring his first Premier League goal in a comeback win at Fulham—becoming Chelsea’s youngest league scorer since 2020. That season he featured regularly in Chelsea’s Conference League and FIFA Club World Cup victories. His versatility, composure, and instincts created real momentum— and even won him the Academy Player of the Season award for 2024–25.
International
George is a youth international for England (U16–U19) and scored his first U19 goal in a draw against Croatia. He remains eligible for Nigeria and Ghana through his heritage and is one to watch for potential senior call-ups.
