Mount, previously praised as “unbelievable” by former Chelsea midfielder Joe Cole, could be an excellent addition to Manchester United’s midfield in the number eight role.
Moreover, with Mason Mount’s versatility as a center or attacking midfielder, he has made 195 senior appearances for Chelsea, contributing 33 goals and 37 assists.
Furthermore, Mount’s statistics place him in the top 7% of attacking midfielders/wingers across Europe’s major leagues and the Champions League and Europa League for progressive passes per 90 minutes over the past year, as reported by FBref.
His ability to provide a creative spark and contribute to the team’s attacking impetus could significantly enhance the midfield options of Man United.
The imminent arrival of Mason Mount signifies the club’s ambition to strengthen their squad with quality signings as they aim for success in the upcoming campaign.
