Liverpool are firmly in the hunt to sign Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount as his continues to be at loggerheads with the Londoners over a new deal.
The Cobham academy graduate has risen through the ranks, with a sparking spell at Derby County in the middle, to establish himself as a first-team starter at Stamford Bridge. While some stars have been rewarded with new bumper extensions in west London, Mount remains in the cold.
As a result, the Reds are looking to swoop in and snap up the England international. The ECHO understands that the 24-year-old is high on the list of midfield priorities among chiefs at Anfield, as Jude Bellingham remains the main target.
