According to a source, the newly minted owners of Chelsea are planning to swap Mason Mount for Joao Feliz, who joined the Blues on loan in the winter. The club's bosses are impressed with Feliz's performance, so they are considering the option of exchanging the player for Mason Mount.

The 24-year-old Englishman has lost his place in the Aristocrats' starting line-up, and his current deal with the club runs until the summer of 2024. Mount's transfer value is estimated at €75 million.

Earlier it was reported that Chelsea would pay €80 million for the full transfer of Joao Feliz.
