Mason Mount has been slammed for his 'outlandish' demands as Chelsea look to extend the midfielder's contract. The 24-year-old faces an increasingly uncertain future at Stamford Bridge having recently entered the final year-and-a-half of his deal.
One of Todd Boehly's priorities since taking the helm in west London has been to tie Mount down to a long-term future at the club, football.london understands. But, it's believed that negotiations have proven difficult thus far, with the proposed length of contract and wage packet proving to be an issue.
Mount is far from one of the top earners at Chelsea despite being a seasoned England international. Contrary to various reports, it's said that the Cobham graduate wants to stay at his boyhood club, but the feeling is mutual that either party is some way off an agreement, as it stands.
