Manchester United are closing in on their first signing of the summer transfer window after agreeing a £60million deal with Chelsea to sign midfielder Mason Mount.
United, who will travel to the United States next month for their pre-season tour, have agreed to sign the England international for an initial £55m fee, with another £5m to be potentially paid in add-ons. Mount has already agreed personal terms and is expected to put pen to paper on a five-year contract.
Presuming United avoid hitting any late snags, Mount should officially become a United player next week following a medical. He will add another dimension to manager Erik ten Hag's midfield options and will end their pursuit of another central midfielder.
