Mason Mount has said that he is 'very happy' at Chelsea amid ongoing talks of a contract extension at Stamford Bridge. The 23-year-old midfielder has recently entered the final two years of his deal, and it's believed that negotiations over a new deal have begun.
According to The Telegraph, there is an expectation that Mount will pen a new contract with the Blues, but 'it could take time'. The report states that talks between the two parties began over the summer, but there is no agreement as of yet.
It's said that the west Londoners are considering attacking midfielders if he does not sign a new deal. Chelsea have reportedly identified Lorenzo Pellegrini of Roma and Yéremy Pino of Villarreal as candidates to potentially replace the England international.
