Journalist Dean Jones claims that Manchester United is ‘one step away’ from declaring Chelsea player Mason Mount as their first summer signing.

What are the most recent Mason Mount transfer rumours?

According to Sky Sports News, Mount is having a medical before his impending £60 million transfer to Manchester United.

Three offers from the Red Devils for Mount were rejected; however, the £80k-per-week star now appears likely to leave Stamford Bridge for Old Trafford in a high-profile summer move for Erik Ten Hag’s team.

The medical examination for Mason Mount before he joins Manchester United has been finished, according to renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano.

The Manchester Evening News reports that Fulham are reportedly interested in signing Mount, which might result in Manchester United midfielder Fred being pushed out of the exit door at Old Trafford.

This summer, Donny van de Beek and Scott McTominay have also been mentioned as possible departures, although it’s doubtful that Manchester United could afford to sign anyone else in the midfield outside Mason Mount.

Journalist Jones explained to GIVEMESPORT that Manchester United is almost there as they get ready to formally acquire Mount from Chelsea.

“An announcement is ready, and soon he will be getting the ‘Here We Go’ treatment,” said Jones. This player, who is only 24 years old and has a strong pedigree at every level of the elite stage, is a very good signing.

He will do well with this United team as an 8.” Erik ten Hag reportedly can’t wait to collaborate with him.

Will Manchester United make a wise acquisition in Mason Mount?

The transfer to Manchester United under Ten Hag may be the perfect one for Mount, who is a hard-working, admirable person who may have fallen victim to circumstance at Chelsea. The Dutch manager will have specific intentions to help Mount regain the consistency of his previous career at the Blues.

According to Transfermarkt, the England international has played 195 times for Chelsea, with 33 goals and 37 assists overall.

According to WhoScored, Mount demonstrated his abilities as a creative force in midfield last season by averaging 1.3 critical passes per game in the Premier League.

FBRef shows that Mount created 83 effective shots during the previous season, demonstrating some of his potential despite an unsatisfactory tenure at Stamford Bridge overall.

Mount has the potential to be a valuable asset for Manchester United and establish an intriguing midfield partnership with players like Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro with the appropriate management.
