Mason Mount is heavily linked with a move to Manchester United this summer amid an ongoing Chelsea contract stand-off
Manchester United are unwilling to pay more than £60million for Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount, according to reports.
The England international is being backed to lead a mass exodus out of Stamford Bridge as Mauricio Pochettino aims to trim an overpopulated squad. Speculation regarding Mount’s future was rife throughout 2022-23 and it appears likely he will be heading for the exit.
Just one year left on his contract means Chelsea may prefer a deal this summer rather than risk losing him for nothing. However, reports have suggested the Blues are wanting around £70million for the England international.
For context, Chelsea stumped up £45million for Raheem Sterling - who found himself in a similar situation - this time last year. The Blues would reportedly accept £60million for Mount but Man United are refusing to cave in to those demands.
A No.10 is viewed as one of the top priorities for the Red Devils as Erik ten Hag plans his own summer shake-up at Old Trafford. Reporter Ben Jacobs has told GiveMeSport that, while Mount is on their wish list, they will not be held to ransom by Chelsea.
"This is a high priority for Erik ten Hag but Manchester United are adamant that they need to be disciplined with Mount. They need to try and get him for under £60million and that, as I've said before, is because Manchester United's transfer policy is restricted.
"And if they are to bring in a couple of early players, then they're going to have to try and distribute their budget to allow that to happen rather than using it all up on one player."

Ten hags don't fuse your self on Mount and Kane , Kane alone can never help you to win league or champions league, l edge you to buy Hojlund and give Greenwood chance to play

Erik Ten Hag should give play time to Academy Youngsters who had been loaned to other clubs from different leagues, and, those Academy Youngsters who had been on the bench since the beginning of last season...
