Chelsea boss Graham Potter has admitted he has made his feelings clear towards Mason Mount regarding his contract standoff with the club. The 24-year-old has been locked in negotiations with the Blues over a new deal since last November, but little to no progress over an extension has been made in that time.
Under Frank Lampard and Thomas Tuchel, Mount was a key figure, helping the club win the Champions League in the 2020/21 season. Despite a bright star under Potter, the England international has seen his form dip at the worst possible time, with contract talks ongoing.
Chelsea were able to secure back-to-back wins for the first time since October on Tuesday when they overcame Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League last-16. Three days prior, the Blues beat Leeds at Stamford Bridge and did so without Mount, who suffered an abdomen injury at the beginning of March.
