Frank Lampard knows a thing or two about playing in midfield, so when he says that Mason Mount has a big future ahead of him it’s worth paying attention.
Mount is set to make his Derby County debut in Lampard’s first game as a manager in Friday’s Championship opener at Reading.
Lampard has reveleaed that the youngster, who is on a season-long loan at Pride Park, is on the radar of Gareth Southgate for a call-up to the England squad.
“I’m aware that England are aware of him and this is a fantastic opportunity for him to show the world, and England, what he can do,” he said.
