Mason Mount’s ‘case’ threatens to turn into one of the biggest transfer sagas of the summer, if it isn’t already! Chelsea’s negotiations with Manchester United have hit a wall again after the two sides failed to agree on compensation. For the third time, the Blues are rejecting the offer from Manchester, as they consider it not good enough. This third was worth 64,000,000 euros, that is, 58 in the name of compensation, with another six million in the name of bonus. But that is not enough for them.More on Manchester United’s rejected £50+5m bid for Mason Mount. Chelsea evaluated the offer this evening and countered with £58+7m and offered face to face talks to resolve the transfer.

Chelsea are asking for slightly more than 67,000,000 euros in compensation, with eight million euros in additions. And not only that, the club from London offered United’s leaders to meet, sit down together and reach a compromise solution. The problem is that United apparently agreed not to raise the limit for this transfer, even though Mount is Erik Ten Haag’s great desire.Sure, buying players is cool, but what about an entire club: Chelsea are close to purchasing StrasbourgOn their part, Chelsea are in a bit of a problem, considering that they need to deal with their losses by the end of the month, and they are currently over 140 million. Mount’s potential transfer would cover almost half of that sum and that’s why they are so eager to the get the best possible price. On the other hand, they are waking on razor’s edge with his stalling, since the player is in the last year of his contract and could walk away for free next season.Captain Azpi on his way to join Champions League runners-upNot favored by both Potter and Lampard, Mount had the worst season since playing for the boyhood club, with just three goals and six assists, although that wasn’t too bad, considering Chelsea’s overall record. The club from West London therefore now has to take care not to lose Mount for free. The young midfielder can basically sign a pre-contract with any club outside Great Britain, and Bayern Munich is reportedly interested, since his former coach Thomas Tuchel’s is now in charge.##NAJAVA_MECA_7339162##At the moment, there is very little chance that Mount will sign a new contract, he has already rejected the club’s offer. New Blues coach Mauricio Pochettino wants him in his team with an important role. In the end, it is likely that Mount’s desire will be decisive, although Chelsea also have their own concerns. If the Blues sell Kai Havertz, Mateo Kovacic, Hakim Ziyech and Eduardo Mendy, they will probably cover the losses. With Mount’s sale, the composition would be further relieved and the finances would be strengthened.
