Bayern Munich are stepping up their interest in Mason Mount and attempting to capitalise on Manchester United’s struggle to agree a fee with Chelsea for the midfielder.
United have had three bids rejected for Mount, who has a year left on his contract, and are weighing up whether to walk away from negotiations. They believe that Chelsea’s £65m valuation of the 24-year-old is too high and are ready to look at other midfield targets, with Brighton’s Moisés Caicedo high on Erik ten Hag’s wishlist.
