Chelsea are set to face a "take it or leave it" transfer offer from Manchester United for midfielder Mason Mount in the coming days. It comes as the future of the Cobham Academy graduate hangs in the balance, with just the one-year remaining on his contract at the club.
Reports have stated that the midfielder is likely to leave the Blues on a free transfer next summer if he doesn't secure a move away this window. With that in mind, the hierarchy face a dilemma, not looking to undervalue a player of his ability while also ensuring they don't miss out on the chance of a fee.
Plenty of clubs have been linked, with Arsenal and Liverpool amongst those, but it has been Man United that appear to be the frontrunners. Personal terms have been claimed to not be an issue for the Red Devils, leaving just the fee itself to be sorted between the clubs.
