Bayern Munich offer Todd Boehly major Mason Mount lifeline as Chelsea transfer tactic slammed

Bayern Munich could revive Chelsea's hopes of selling Mason Mount this summer after Manchester United reportedly walked away from negotiations. The 24-year-old midfielder faces an increasingly uncertain future at Stamford Bridge, with his contract set to expire at the end of next season.

Unless the Blues manage to offload Mount this summer or in January then he'll be free to leave the club in 12 months time. While Chelsea would rather charge a fee for the England international's signature than seeing him leave for free, the club seem to be driving a hard bargain.

The west Londoners rejected a third bid from United worth £50million, including £5million worth of add-ons, a couple of days ago. Chelsea submitted a counter offer of £58million up front, in addition to a further £7million as add-ons, which Erik ten Hag's side swiftly snubbed.
