Man United to make first Mason Mount offer, terms revealed (reliability: 5 stars)

Man United are set to make a ₤50m bid for Mason Mount this month, according to The Telegraph.

United believe that this is a fair price for the midfielder who has only one year on his current contract with Chelsea. Besides, he did not have a good 2022/23 campaign, partly due to injuries.

Chelsea plan to hold out for a bigger fee, but they need to reach an agreement quickly to trim the squad and balance the books.

Personal terms are not expected to be an issue as Man United are Mount's preferred destination despite interest from Liverpool and Arsenal.
