Mason Mount reveals World Cup 'dream' as Chelsea star looks for Champions League final repeat

Mason Mount has revealed he would love to play in the World Cup final at the Estadio do Dragao in Porto.

Remember that? About a year and a half ago, Chelsea won their second Champions League in that exact stadium. Mount himself got that famous assist for Kai Havertz's winning goal.

In less than two months, Mount should be representing England in this year's FIFA World Cup. That is, of course, if he is selected in Gareth Southgate's squad.

Mount has been answering some questions about the upcoming World Cup while on Nations League duty with England. One of the questions put to him was the stadium he'd most like to play a World Cup final at.

He replied: "I’d probably say let’s take it back to Porto and the Estadio do Dragao, for obvious reasons."

If Mount does indeed make the England squad for the World Cup, then it would be his second major tournament for his country. Mount played a big part in England reaching the final of Euro 2020, but he has revealed his "dream" is to represent his country at a World Cup.

"You dream of being able to play in a tournament like that as a kid so to have an opportunity to go to a World Cup and be selected is unbelievable and so special," he added.

"With the group we have and what we’ve been doing over the past couple of years, we’re confident in what we can do but also very humble for the opportunity. We’ll give it everything we’ve got to go one step further than we did last tournament."
