Manchester United have made a fresh bid of £50million for Mason Mount but have warned Chelsea they won’t be held to ransom.
United submitted a second bid of £45m plus £5m in add-ons for Mount, with Chelsea immediately rejecting it and demanding £60m plus an additional £5m.
Despite Erik ten Hag wanting the England midfielder, United have made it clear to Chelsea they will not be pressured into bidding more than they feel he is worth. With just a year left on his current contract, United believe their latest offer is reflective of Mount’s current market value and are not prepared to pay over the odds for him.
