Chelsea will be hoping they are still in control of the Mason Mount contract saga despite several twists and turns in the last few months. The Blues midfielder sees his current deal expire in 18 months and talks over an extension have rumbled on since before the World Cup.
Negotiations were initially set for November, but soon moved to January and now talks are set for the summer. With a clear gap between the two parties over an extension being agreed, Mount faces a crucial few months at Stamford Bridge to prove he is worthy of his wage demands.
Graham Potter was asked about the contract predicament involving Mount in his pre-Tottenham press conference where the Chelsea boss was reluctant to comment.
