According to the source, Manchester City, Liverpool and Bayern Munich are interested in the services of the talented player, but the player himself is committed to the option with MU. However, this transfer may not take place due to a possible change of ownership at MU. The current Red Devils' managers are serious about signing a centre forward, so the option of Mount's transfer is not yet on the table.

It should be added that Mauricio Pochettino, who is being actively courted by Chelsea, hopes to keep Mason Mount. Moreover, the Argentine is determined to make Mount a key player.

It will be recalled that Mason Mount's current agreement with Chelsea runs until the summer of 2024. It's also worth considering that the London club's officials should get rid of several players to balance the financial statements.
