“He will start today” – Enzo Maresca confirms Chelsea player set to start for the first time against Aston Villa
Chelsea youngster Tyrique George is edging closer to making his first Premier League start, with the 18-year-old in contention for selection ahead of the Blues’ upcoming clash against Aston Villa, according to reports.
Although George has yet to start a league match this season, he has impressed in his Conference League appearances, showing glimpses of his potential.
Despite Chelsea’s recent defeat to Brighton, his cameo performance stood out, further strengthening his case for more minutes under Enzo Maresca.
With injuries limiting Chelsea’s attacking options, the door is now open for George to stake his claim in the first team. A start against Villa could mark a significant milestone in his development as he looks to establish himself at Stamford Bridge.
