Mason Mount’s saga intensifies with Bayern joining the race. The Chelsea midfielder is in the warm interest of Bayern Munich, especially coach Thomas Tuchel.
Bayern smells opportunities due to delays around Mount
The Guardian knows that. Mount, who has another year under contract at Stamford Bridge, is wanted by Manchester United, who have already bid for him three times. Three times without success, however. Now Bayern would like to take a chance, and the Londoners might be inclined to accept a lower offer from a foreign club. Chelsea’s hands are also somewhat tied: the midfielder therefore only has a contract until next summer and could then leave for free.
The latest offer from Man Utd, around 65 million euros, was rejected, Chelsea would replace just over seventy million. The club is playing a high game, because Mount would have already indicated internally. That he would not sign a new contract. Mount worked well with Tuchel at Chelsea. And the Bayern coach is keen to see his ex-pupil cross the North Sea.
Pulisic has three offers: “I especially want to find fun again”
Christian Pulisic has nothing to complain about interest, but above all wants to make a well-considered choice. The attacker has had a difficult year at Chelsea and hopes to find the fun again soon.
In the past two transfer windows, owner Todd Boehly has spent a lot of money to bring a range of new players to London. Partly because of this, Pulisic, himself once picked up for more than sixty million euros. From Borussia Dortmund, ended up on the second plan. This season, he was in just eight Premier League games in the starting line-up.
Various clubs want to put the American out of his misery. According to Italian media, AC Milan and Juventus are eager to take over him, while L’Équipe recently added the interest of Olympique Lyon. “It’s definitely a time when I need to figure out what’s best for my future,” Pulisic told ESPN of the choice he’ll have to make this summer.
“Most of all, I need to be somewhere where I can play. Regain confidence and feel good about what I’m doing. I would also like to find that fun again at club level,” Pulisic concluded. He still has a contract with Chelsea until mid-2024.
