Mason Mount figures prominently in Chelsea manager Graham Potter’s plans. However, the attacking midfielder’s contract expires in June 2024. The Blues are confident that the 23-year-old can be extended in the near future.
Mason Mount has played eleven competitive games for Chelsea this season. The 23-year-old got three assists. Under the direction of Graham Potter, who took over as coach from Thomas Tuchel on September 8, the attacking midfielder always found himself in the starting XI. “I don’t doubt Mason Mount at all. It’s like everything, sometimes the team doesn’t work so well and the individuals don’t work so well,” Potter explained, adding, “Every young player knows that there’s a bit of ups and downs in football off.”
Mount plays an important role in the new coach – also in the future. Therefore, the contract of the English national player should be extended early. Since Todd Boehly took over the club, the Blues have been working to expand their employment relationship.
Similar to Reece James, who recently extended his working paper by six years, Mount is also to be tied to the two-time Champions League winner in the long term. After 90 minutes of information, the Blues are also confident that the 23-year-old will extend his contract this year.
