Trevoh Chalobah has expressed his disappointment at Mason Mount's expected transfer to Man United, hinting at his sadness in a tweet posted as a deal nears completion.
The pair have played together from a young age, coming through the age groups with the club together, with Chalobah following in Mount's footsteps to reach the first team at Stamford Bridge. Having played for the Blues from the age of six, Mount is now set to leave, with Man United expected to complete a £60 million deal.
Amid a change in ownership, Chelsea's fortunes dipped last season and they were unable to convince Mount to sign a new contract. Reports suggest that three attempts were made to secure a new deal for the 24-year-old, but that no such agreement could be reached.
