Liverpool are very interested in bringing Chelsea duo Mason Mount and Conor Gallagher to Anfield this summer, a source has told football.london.
As reported late on Tuesday evening, football.london understands the Reds have made Mount their number one priority this summer as Jurgen Klopp looks to revamp his midfield after this season's struggles. Mount is someone the club and Klopp believe will naturally fit into the German's way of playing football and they are confident they can secure a move for the 24-year-old who has just over 12 months remaining on his contract at Chelsea.
The Blues still want to keep Mount but will be open to selling him should they not reach an agreement over an extension before the summer transfer window officially opens. It's understood the two parties are still some way off reaching an agreement, with Mount wanting a pay packet more representative of his significance to the club and the board wanting to tie him down to a seven-year deal, something the player's entourage do not wish for.
