Chelsea supporters have hilariously slammed Manchester United for reportedly including Harry Maguire as a makeweight in a potential deal to sign Mason Mount. The 24-year-old midfielder faces an increasingly uncertain future at Stamford Bridge, with his contract set to expire at the end of next season.
football.london understands that the Blues were once close to reaching an agreement with Mount over a new deal but, following after the World Cup in Qatar, an offer was no longer on the table. Then, towards the end of January, the west Londoners reopened talks with the England international, though he wasn't keen on signing a one-year extension.
It's understood that Mount is yet to have received another offer, meaning he'll become a free agent in 12 months time as it stands. With Chelsea keen to cash in before it's too late, United, Liverpool and Arsenal are seriously interested in securing the Cobham graduate's signature.
