Mason Mount could grab his favourite squad number at Manchester United if his proposed transfer goes through - but there will be some red tape for the England international to tackle first.
Mount, 24, is preparing to leave Stamford Bridge when the market reopens and United are in pole position to win the race for his signature. Mount's representatives - father Tony and agent Neil Fewings - have held advanced talks with key figures at Old Trafford and they have settled on important details.
As things stand, there has been no agreement between the clubs when it comes to a fee and so United must wait a little while longer before potentially unveiling Mount as their first summer signing. However, it appears as though they have a free run at the Chelsea midfielder.
