Thomas Tuchel would like to make former pupil Mason Mount his first reinforcement at his new club Bayern Munich. The midfielder could be unleashed at Chelsea.
Bayern considering reuniting Mount and Tuchel
This is reported by The Times on Tuesday. Mount still has a contract in London until mid-2024, and talks about a new commitment are not yet progressing. Add to that the fact that dark clouds hang over the office of the financial administration at Stamford Bridge, and a departure of the English midfielder from his own academy would be negotiable. Despite Mount’s short-term contract, the transfer fee would still be at least 57 million euros.
Tuchel would like to sign Mount after the two worked brilliantly together at Chelsea. Mount, who played on a rental basis at Vitesse in the 2017/18 season, was often one of the first names in the starting line-up under the German. Liverpool would also be interested in Mount. Together they won the Champions League in 2021. In addition to Mount, Tuchel would also like to bring Anthony Barry, an assistant coach, to his new club.
Brentford is convinced of Mark Flekken and wants to pay release clause
Staying in London, Mark Flekken (29) can make a dream transfer next summer. The goalkeeper of the Dutch national team enjoys interest from Brentford. According to Kicker, the Premier League club wants to have Mark Flekken under the bar next season.
The German medium reports that SC Freiburg wants clarity from Mark Flekken about his future before May 1. The closing post would have a clause in his contract that allows him to leave for a limited transfer fee. “Success generates interest,” Kicker writes of Brentford’s flirtation.
According to the sports newspaper, Mark Flekken has made a sensational development at Freiburg. The goalkeeper would be one of the pillars of success. That is why Bundesliga sub-topper really wanted to continue with the keeper.
A release clause would allow Mark Flekken to leave for a small fee. In Germany, people know about the Orange goalie’s wish to play in the Premier League. As a result, Freiburg would quickly want to sit down with Mark Flekken, so that the clause can be removed from an upgraded contract.
Brentford is looking for a goalkeeper, because current keeper David Raya enjoys concrete interest from Tottenham Hotspur. The Londoners would have already agreed to a transfer. In addition, the thirteen million euros that has to cost would be a pittance for the club. Brentford has become convinced of the international. However, Freiburg hopes he stays.
