Liverpool-linked Mason Mount rejected a £200,000-per-week contract extension before jetting off to the World Cup, according to the Daily Mail .
Mount flew out with the rest of the 26-man England squad last week and has started both of their Group B matches against Iran and the USA. His time in Qatar has been somewhat overshadowed by talk of contract problems at his club, with the Guardian reporting last Thursday that the Reds and Juventus were monitoring the situation amid a stalling of negotiations.
The 23-year-old's current contract runs out in the summer of 2024 and a reluctance to sign a new deal with the Blues had set Liverpool on high alert as they explored the possibility of luring the midfielder away from his boyhood club, although no approaches had been made by either them or Juventus.
