Liverpool Given Transfer Boost As Romano Provides New Update On Chelsea Ace’s Future

Liverpool Given Transfer Boost As Romano Provides New Update On Chelsea Ace’s Future

Liverpool target Mason Mount is no closer to signing a new contract with Chelsea, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.

The journalist claims there is a “big gap” between the two sides, and the chances of the player leaving Stamford Bridge this summer are increasing:

Manchester City, Manchester United and Newcastle are also said to be keeping tabs on Mount’s situation but it has been reported that the midfielder would favour a move to Anfield if he does leave the Blues at the end of the season.

It should be pointed out that the 24-year-old’s preference would be to remain at Chelsea, but it appears a sale will be considered by the club if he doesn’t put pen to paper on a new deal.

Mount is said to be earning around £80,000 a week but, with the likes of Raheem Sterling earning four times that, it’s understandable why the player is holding out for a better offer.
