Mason Mount of Chelsea is one of the midfielders Liverpool is looking to add this summer.
Over the past several weeks, rumors about Mount maybe going to Anfield have gotten louder and louder. Journalist Fabrizio Romano addressed the rumors on his YouTube channel Wednesday and said Liverpool is, in fact, interested in the 24-year-old.
The transfer analyst started out by saying, “They are still conversing and discussing, but right now everything is on hold – there has still been no agreement between Chelsea and Mason Mount.” “It’s one to watch in May, June, and July; otherwise, Chelsea may need to investigate market options and talk to other teams.
We have a lot of Liverpool rumors. Although they are aware of Mount’s position, we also know about Jude Bellingham and other players like Matheus Nunes. Midfielders have a fairly long list in the summer. Nonetheless, Mount should be kept an eye on.
A final decision regarding the England player will be made before to the start of the upcoming season, continued Romano.
The journalist continued, “The choice is anticipated to be made before the start of the following season. Thus, Mount is having a busy summer. There must be a trade-off.
Mount disposed to a change
Like he frequently did at Chelsea, Mount is certain to polarize Liverpool supporters. While some could consider him an excellent player to target, others might not.
In actuality, it’s difficult to imagine how any Reds could look down on the 24-year-old. In any case, it would be wise to take a chance on him.
Mount possesses two essential qualities that Liverpool’s current midfield alternatives lack. First off, he’s always in shape. He has only missed 10 league games since making the Chelsea first team in 2019.
The second is that Mount never stops moving. Jurgen Klopp’s midfield really needs some new legs because the players who now play for them have done nothing but run for the past six years. Mount could undoubtedly offer that.
In addition to all of that, he is a highly skilled player. He hasn’t displayed it much this season, possibly because of the pressures associated with being a Chelsea academy product who has achieved success. But he also won Player of the Year honors for the London club’s last two seasons. He was originally referred to as a £60 million player by Jurgen Klopp. Maybe all he needs is a change.
It appears as though he will receive one if he is unable to come to one at Stamford Bridge between now and the summer. Liverpool currently appears to be the most likely to provide that.
