Mason Mount received multiple contract offers from Chelsea, according to Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag, but he had already made the decision to “make the step” and join with the club.
After an injury-plagued season, Mount scored his first goal for United against Brentford this past weekend. Now, eager to make his first Premier League start in almost six months, Mount is gearing up to play at Stamford Bridge. The manager’s remarks, nevertheless, appear to imply that Mount might sit out the forthcoming game against his old squad.Reported by Goal.

getting ready to make his first start in the Premier League at Stamford Bridge in almost six months. The manager’s remarks, nevertheless, appear to imply that Mount might sit out the forthcoming game against his old squad.
Chelsea’s last proposal on the table was a one-year contract extension with a pay raise. For Mount, this was not sufficient. But now, Mount’s new boss, ten Hag, has acknowledged that Mount received other offers to remain in west London.
Ahead of the game with Chelsea, ten Hag said: “I don’t think they wanted to sell him. They wanted to keep him and offered him a new contract many times. But he wanted to make this step.
“We are very pleased he is a Manchester United player because he has great abilities and will contribute and become a big player for Manchester United.”
