Mason Mount to Man United transfer hangs in the balance as Chelsea told new final bid deadline

Mason Mount's move from Chelsea to Manchester United hangs in the balance as the two teams race against time to secure a transfer agreement. The sides have been in negotiations over a potential switch for the 24-year-old this summer, with several bids rejected by the Blues already.

football.london understands that the west London outfit have held a £70million valuation of the midfielder, despite only having one-year left on his contract. That stance appears to have softened in recent days after a recently rejected bid of roughly £50million saw the Blues counteroffer a total package worth £65million.

It suggests there is some room to work with on both sides, however there will still be a sense of urgency in the coming days ahead. For Chelsea, if they wish to have the finances from the deal count towards their financial accounts for the past year, the deal must go through by June 30.
