Manchester United have agreed personal terms with Chelsea star Mason Mount as Erik ten Hag closes in on his first summer signing.
The future of the 24-year-old England international has been the subject of widespread speculation in recent months, who has fallen out of favour at Stamford Bridge during the club's chaotic 2022/23 season. The homegrown star, pivotal in their 2020/21 Champions League win, made 35 appearances in all competitions but suffered injury issues and patchy form.
Arsenal and Liverpool have also been pursuing Mount, whose deal expires in the summer of 2024. New boss Mauricio Pochettino had been keen to hold talks over where he sees his future, but the club's owners want to cash in rather than risk losing him for nothing in 12 months.
