Mason Mount will not be an automatic starter for Manchester United and must fight for his spot at Old Trafford, according to the club’s former striker Louis Saha.
Mount completed his move to Old Trafford from Chelsea on Tuesday with United paying an initial £55m plus up to £5m in add-ons. He becomes United's first summer signing as manager Erik ten Hag readies his squad for Champions League football.
Mount, 24, has signed a five-year deal with the Red Devils, who fended off competition from rivals Arsenal and Liverpool in order to earn his signature. Having agreed personal terms weeks ago and already met his new team-mates at the club's Carrington training base, Mount is now a United player.
