Gary Neville has warned Erik ten Hag that Mason Mount might not be the right signing for Manchester United. The 24-year-old midfielder has been heavily linked with a move to Old Trafford recently, with his contract at Chelsea expiring in 12 months.
football.london understands that the two clubs have now reached an agreement worth around £60million for Mount, who has already agreed personal terms with the Red Devils. It's believed that United will pay the Blues £55m, plus a further £5m in add-ons, and the England international will now undergo the formalities of joining a new club.
Chelsea had been working closely with Mount over an extension for the past year or so, and there was even confidence before last year's World Cup that a deal could be struck. But, once he returned from Qatar, an offer was no longer on the table – despite the thought that a verbal agreement had been reached.
