00:00Everton are moving decisively in the transfer markets
00:04They look to inject fresh energy into their attack
00:07The club have reached an agreement in principle with Chelsea
00:11To sign highly rated winger Tyreek George on loan
00:15A deal that includes an option to buy at the end of the season
00:19The 19-year-old has been given permission to travel for a medical
00:22With the move now awaiting final ratification from Everton
00:26For David Moyes this is about addressing a growing problem
00:30Everton's attacking options have been stretched after Jack Grealish
00:34Suffered a foot injury last month
00:36One that is expected to rule him out for the remainder of the campaign
00:40George's arrival would offer pace, directness and versatility out wide
00:45As a crucial stage of the season
00:47Despite limited opportunities at Chelsea
00:49George remains one of the most highly regarded young attackers in the country
00:54Everton faced significant competition to secure the deal
00:57Underlining the belief around the winger's potential
01:00His output this season coupled with his performances for England under-21s
01:05Suggest a player ready for a sustained run of first-team football
01:08This is also low-risk high upside move for Everton
01:13The loan structure allows the club to assess George's adaptation
01:16For a side searching for creativity, goals and momentum
01:19This could prove a smart piece of business
01:22And if Terry George finds his rhythm on Merseyside
01:25It may be a move that benefits everyone involved
