Manchester United appear to be stepping up their approach for Chelsea star Mason Mount ahead of the summer transfer window. The England international is approaching the final 12-months of his contract at Stamford Bridge and with no new deal seemingly in sight, his future at the club is uncertain.
The 24-year-old has had a tough season with the Blues, not helped by a raft of injuries that have plagued him throughout the year. It could result in a bitter ending to an otherwise promising time with the west London outfit, where Mount has won the Player of the Year award twice.
"I think with Mason particularly, as an individual, I don't know what the solution is going to be because it's a club and Mason issue," interim manager Frank Lampard said on the situation surrounding Mount. "I don't know exactly where Mason is at personally. He's got a year left on his contract. I know he's held in high regard at the club and I know the club are doing what they can to make him stay."
