Mason Mount, a top midfielder for English Premier League club Chelsea, is ready to leave the team after reportedly indicating a good interest in joining Bayern Munich. Mount is 24 years old.

According to Naija News, Mount’s current contract with Chelsea must expire in the summer of 2024. Yet the professional footballer from England apparently wants to work with Thomas Tuchel again at Bayern Munich.

Tuchel was appointed the head coach of Bayern Munich, a colossus in the German Bundesliga, just one week ago.

The German professional football manager and former Chelsea manager took over for Julian Nagelsmann, who was apparently fired just before the news that Tuchel had been chosen Bayern’s next manager went viral.

According to reports, Bayern Munich has also expressed a strong interest in adding Mount to the Bundesliga. On the other hand, Mount hasn’t demonstrated any enthusiasm in extending his contract with Chelsea.

During the summer, Chelsea has reportedly spent more than £600 million, and the Blues are reportedly under intense Financial Fair Play pressure. Hence, Mount might be released in order to prevent a breach.

The Guardian said that Mount is “interested” in a summer transfer to Bayern Munich to rejoin with Tuchel, despite the fact that the English player has been linked with a transfer move to Liverpool.

The England international, who has been named Chelsea’s Player of the Year for the past two seasons, is reportedly asking around £70 million from potential suitors.

Mount has acknowledged that he would not succeed in this summer’s Chelsea goals.
