Mason Mount Transfer Betting Odds*

Mason Mount has been at Chelsea since 2005, but it’s possible that the England midfielder might leave Stamford Bridge this summer. The 24-year-old is entering the final year of his contract, and it could be that the Blues cash in on a player who might be deemed surplus to requirements after an influx of new signings. Manchester United are still  favourites to capture his signature but their odds have been drifting recently.

However, the latest football betting odds certainly seem to suggest a move is on the cards, with United being strongly linked to the player. The Red Devils have apparently added Mount to a shopping list that also included England team-mates Harry Kane and Declan Rice, although they are likely to miss out on both players as things stand.

Mount will be considering his latest options now that the 2022/23 season has finished, with the former Derby County loan player having struggled to make an impact during the current campaign. It's not out of the question that he might stay at Chelsea, with much depending on talks with prospective incoming manager Mauricio Pochettino.

It’s an important season for the midfielder considering Euro 2024 is just around the corner, and perhaps we will see Mount engineer a move to a new club, with Arsenal and Liverpool potentially interested in this talented player if the odds on betting apps are to be believed, but it's Manchester United who have shown their hand early.

Manchester United Could Make Mount Marquee Signing

Chelsea might be reluctant to sell Mason Mount to one of their Premier League rivals. Manchester United are likely looking to invest in quality players this summer, especially as they’ve secured a Champions League spot. The fact that they can offer new players the chance to compete for the European Cup is an added draw.

Harry Kane is rumoured to be a target, and perhaps Mount can also be enticed to Old Trafford, with his age of 24 meaning he could be yet to reach his potential. Erik ten Hag will undoubtedly look to strengthen the midfield department, and the England player would likely represent an upgrade on Fred or Scott McTominay, but United might need to spend upwards of £70 million in order to land his services.

He’s also a different style of player to Christian Eriksen, Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro, with Mount being able to cover a lot of ground, and he has the ability to score goals. There’s little doubt that a move would be an exciting one for a player whose next move is likely to be the most important one of his career.

Newcastle Waiting in the Wings for Mount

Should Manchester United fail to agree terms with Mason Mount, it's possible that Newcastle United could be next in line to have a swing. The Tyneside outfit are wealthy thanks to the Saudi Arabian ownership and that could see them offer a lucrative contract to a player who is still relatively young at the age of 24.

Mount certainly wants first-team football next season and he would be certain to feature for a Magpies outfit who are returning to the Champions League. This is the sort of box-to-box midfielder that Eddie Howe would like to add to his team, with the England international desperate to be part of Gareth Southgate's squad for Euro 2024.

We shouldn't forget that the player has represented his country on 36 occasions and scored five goals. Therefore, a summer move to Tyneside could give him the best possible chance of securing a place on the plane to Germany next summer.

Perhaps Mount Set to Stay at Chelsea?

Although Mason Mount is entering a final year of his Chelsea contract, perhaps he will decide to remain with his boyhood club, with Mauricio Pochettino potentially regarding him as part of the team's future. Although it's been a recently bumpy ride for the midfielder, it wouldn't come as a big surprise if he signed a contract extension at Stamford Bridge.

After all, there is the danger that Chelsea selling him to a Premier League title rival could come back to haunt them and there have been glimpses of the player's true potential this season, initially performing really well for Graham Potter.

Mount clearly has a lot of affection for the Blues having been part of the furniture for such a long time, with the betting apps implying that there's a reasonable chance that the midfielder can be persuaded to stay at Stamford Bridge rather than seek pastures new.

Liverpool No Longer Leading Race to Sign Mount 

Liverpool might have recently conceded defeat in their pursuit of a Jude Bellingham transfer, but it might be that they can instead land the signature of Mason Mount. The England international has the majority of his career still in front of him, with the Merseyside club seemingly looking to replace ageing legs in midfield with fresh talent this summer.

Jordan Henderson, Fabinho could join and James Milner on their way out of Anfield this summer, and it’s possible that Mount has been identified as the player to partner the likes of Curtis Jones and Harvey Elliott in the midfield department. It was certainly a problem position for Liverpool during the 2022/23 season.

Mount was been in and out of the Chelsea team last season, with Graham Potter holding him in high regard, but it could be that potential new Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino is less keen on the midfielder. It might also be the case that the player fancies a change at this stage, and there is the prospect of missing out on an England place if he doesn’t get regular first-team football.

Could Mason Mount Head Abroad For Next Move?

Mason Mount and his agent could be open to offers from various clubs this summer, according to the best betting sites, and Bayern Munich have reportedly been monitoring his progress. The 24-year-old could inject fresh energy into the midfield area, and there’s obviously a potential link now that Thomas Tuchel is in charge at Chelsea.

Tuchel used Mount a lot when the pair worked together at Stamford Bridge, and there have been reports that Bayern Munich have enquired about his availability, with the Portsmouth-born player having seen how effective Bellingham has been in a Borussia Dortmund shirt in the Bundesliga.

It’s possible that Mount could be given assurances about first-team football at the Allianz Arena that see him make the switch from Chelsea, and the latest transfer betting odds at new betting sites implies that a potential move to Germany could be on the cards this summer.

Real Madrid are also a club that could be more likely to bid for Mason Mount considering that Toni Kroos and Luka Modric are nearing the end of illustrious careers as opposed to Barcelona, although they Los Blancos did manager to sign Jude Bellingham.

The prospect of Mount leaving England for Spain might seem strange, but it could be that a big-money package is enough to convince him to try out La Liga and play for one of the biggest clubs in the world, with the midfielder offering a new club an exciting option and someone who can play in a variety of positions.

Arsenal Shorten in Betting to Land Midfielder

Arsenal have long been linked with Mason Mount in the press, although the original betting odds suggested that the Chelsea player was unlikely to head to the Emirates this summer. The landscape has changed, however, and the Gunners are now among the favourites to splash the cash and land his signature.

It appears that Mount's good friend Declan Rice could well be headed to North London, and perhaps the 24-year-old could be convinced to follow him to the Emirates. The bookmakers odds now indicate that Arsenal are certainly in the conversation to land the player.

Arsenal pushed Manchester City relatively close in the Premier League title race and will now look to bolster their squad ahead of the 2023/24 season. Signing Mount would be a real statement of intent, and it could be that Mikel Arteta offers the player a chance to kickstart his career, playing in the Premier League and Champions League.
