Chelsea Set A Price Tag On Mason Mount Ahead Of The Summer Transfer Window

Chelsea FC has reportedly set an asking price tag on midfielder Mason Mount ahead of the transfer window opening in the summer.

According to numerous reports, Chelsea FC is reportedly set to sell England midfielder Mason Mount during the summer and a requesting price for the side has been set following reports of clubs such as Bayern Munich, Liverpool and Manchester United showing interest.

Reports indicate that Chelsea would be demanding for 70 million pounds from any club ready to purchase the midfielder. This comes days after both sides reportedly failed to reach an agreement over a possible contract extension for Mount who had been named the player of the year for Chelsea for two consecutive seasons.

The Dailymail UK revealed:

Chelsea are keen to raise money this summer after spending around £600m on new players since the summer transfer window.

The Athletic have now reported that they hope to make £70m from Mount this summer, if they can't come to terms with him on a new deal.

It remains to be seen whether their valuation is realistic, given that clubs could sign him up on a free transfer once his contract expires in 2024.

Both Manchester clubs, Newcastle and Tottenham have all monitored developments surrounding Mount, but the club with perhaps the most serious interest in the Premier League is Liverpool.
