Tyrique George Scout Report At Chelsea 2025/2026: The Blues’ Next Cobham Gem — Player Analysis

There have been a plethora of talents to have come through Chelsea’s academy over the years.

However, due to the high volume of transfer activity conducted by the Blues, many slip through their fingers or are shipped out for profit.

It is fascinating to look up the names of some of the talents who started at Cobham, as they now play for established Premier League clubs: Dominic Solanke, Marc Guehi, Ola Aina, Ian Maatsen, and Nathan Ake.

All players who had talent and emerged at other clubs.

These talents were right under Chelsea’s nose, but they never found the time to let players emerge into the first team.

This isn’t to say Chelsea completely ignore their academy.

There has been room for players like Mason Mount and Reece James to have successful spells in the first team.

However, it’s clear that Chelsea produces a lot of talent, so focusing more on Cobham would save them time and money.

It may be wise for them to revisit sending players out on loan to gain Premier League experience and recalling them back when they become established. Such was the success they had with Conor Gallagher and Levi Colwill.

One talent Chelsea need to keep tabs on and ensure he gets first team minutes before another team may snap him up is Tyrique George.

After making his senior debut in the 2024/2025 season, George has made four more appearances this season and scored against Ajax.

The UEFA Conference League was a tournament where Enzo Maresca could give emerging talents like George crucial minutes.

A move to Fulham collapsed on September 1st, and Maresca has used George sparingly this season, as the winger has showcased his talents.

With talks set to take place in January, Chelsea must be careful not to see George’s talents at another club.

This Tyrique George scout report will break down the Englishman’s game and why he may prove an invaluable option for Enzo Maresca.

Tyrique George Style Of Play

Watching Tyrique George’s footage over matches was joyous.

This tends to be the case when looking at exciting talent on the wing, but George is a silky, skilful player who has the attributes and performs actions in a ‘street footballer’-esque manner.

A report in The Athletic highlighted that George spent time as a 13-year-old playing with boys older than him, ages 18-21.

His game oozes the type of flair that represents the cheeky, young player with fearlessness.

His time playing with boys significantly older than him clearly developed his confidence as a player.

During the EFL Cup game against Wolverhampton Wanderers, where George scored, he received the ball on the right-hand side, but instead of receiving it to feet, he let it run past him, feinting and turning Yerson Mosquera, who was not expecting the move and attempted to get back and challenge the player by putting an arm across to him.

As this happened, Tyrique George drilled a delicious inside pass to another Chelsea player and continued his run.
