The future of Mason Mount at Chelsea continues to take regular major twists and the latest update has seen a new Premier League club register an interest. Liverpool have made Mount their priority this summer, football.london understands, but Arsenal could hijack that move with the Gunners eyeing a shock approach for the Chelsea midfielder this summer, according to a report from GOAL.
With Mount's contract up in the summer of 2024, Chelsea must make a decision on his future at the end of the current season. Negotiations have been postponed throughout the campaign but the summer has now been outlined as the time period to discuss terms.
Noticing the fragile state of his immediate future at Stamford Bridge, Liverpool are hoping to capitalise not only on Mount's contract dispute but all the financial worries of Chelsea. An important FFP deadline is fast approaching for Chelsea where they must sell a number of players by June 30 to meet financial regulations.
