Mason Mount: Chelsea reject second Man Utd bid of £50m for England midfielder

Manchester United have had a second bid - worth up to £50m - for Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount rejected.

Mount, 24, is a top target for United manager Erik ten Hag as he looks to strengthen his side following their qualification for next season's Champions League.

Chelsea spent £600m last season and need to sell players before 30 June to ease Financial Fair Play (FFP) worries.

The Blues are understood to value Mount at about £70m.

Mount, who has scored 33 goals in 195 appearances for Chelsea since making his debut in 2019, missed the end of the domestic season with injury as the Blues came 12th - their lowest finish for more than 25 years.
