Manchester United have reached a contractual agreement with Mason Mount, according to several English media outlets. The Red Devils will now have to reach an agreement with Chelsea.

The summer mercato is shaping up to be a busy one for Chelsea, especially in terms of departures. After having recruited and invested a lot since last summer, the London club will have to part with several players to replenish its coffers and allow its new coach Mauricio Pochettino to work in the best conditions, with a smaller group and that he has chosen.

If the Argentine has already decided not to keep João Félix beyond his loan, Mateo Kovacic could be transferred to Manchester City while Mason Mount is very popular with Manchester United, as it had already filtered. According to the Daily Telegraph, the 24-year-old England international has reached a contractual agreement with the Red Devils.

Chelsea value Mount at close to €100m!

Currently under contract with Chelsea until 2024, Mason Mount pleases Pochettino a lot, but decided to change air and join the Manchester club rather than Arsenal and Liverpool, who were also courting him. Manchester United will now have to reach an agreement with Chelsea, which may prove more complicated.

According to the Daily Mail, Chelsea value Mount at 98 million euros while he has only one year left on his contract, while Manchester United value him at around 63 million euros. " Although there is a big disparity between the clubs' valuations, both parties are willing to negotiate," adds the English tabloid.
