A permanent transfer for George Earthy to Bristol City is considered a possibility that could be beneficial for all parties, but the move is dependent on West Ham United's league status. The 21-year-old English midfielder is under contract until the summer of 2027 with an option for an additional year, and he returned to Bristol City on loan in January after injuries reduced his opportunities at West Ham. If the Hammers remain in the Premier League, first-team opportunities are expected to be limited, which could lead to a permanent return to Ashton Gate. Such a move would be with the hope that Earthy could replicate the excellent performance level he demonstrated during his initial loan spell with the Robins. The England U21 international has two caps for his country, and according to Transfermarkt, he has a current market value of €2.00m.
