Chelsea could be willing to sacrifice millions over the sale of Mason Mount if it helps them wrap up a deal for Moises Caicedo. The 24-year-old midfielder has been heavily linked with a move to Manchester United recently, with his contract at Stamford Bridge set to expire at the end of next season.
football.london understands that the Blues were once close to reaching an agreement with Mount over a new deal but, following his return from the World Cup in December, an offer was no longer on the table. In the new year, Chelsea reopened talks with the England international, however he didn't want to sign a one-year extension.
It's believed that Mount hasn't received an improved offer since, meaning that he'll become a free agent at the end of next season. football.london understands United have been leading the race to secure his signature despite having had several bids rejected.
