Liverpool annoyed by 24-year-old snub as Man United closing on the midfielder’s signing
Liverpool fans have been fuming after witnessing a surprising Mason Mount snub in recent football news as Manchester United now leads the race to sign the midfielder.
The talented Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount has received accolades left and right, yet the Reds have been left out of the appreciation party.
Mount’s Meteoric Rise is an Omission Hard to Ignore
Mason Mount’s rise to prominence has been nothing short of extraordinary. The young English midfielder has impressed with his skill, versatility, and maturity beyond his age.
His performances for Chelsea have caught the attention of football pundits and fans worldwide. However, Mount’s omission from Liverpool’s radar is not just a simple oversight; it’s an omission that stings.
The Chelsea star midfielder has agreed to personal terms with the Red Devils over the Reds. He is another name that Liverpool had previously linked but now appears poised to go elsewhere.
Liverpool had an Eye for Mason Mount: A Track Record of Spotting Gems
Liverpool’s scouting network and management team have long been lauded for their ability to identify and nurture top talent. From unearthing gems like Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson to the astute signing of Virgil van Dijk; the Reds have a reputation for spotting players with immense potential.
However, it looks like Manchester United have just got better off the Merseysiders this time around. Old Trafford is called the “Theater of Dreams” for a reason and thus, Mount might be another dream come true signing for the 20-times Premier League champions.
Mason Mount: The upcoming Workforce at Old Trafford
His application on and off the pitch at Stamford Bridge caught the attention of former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel. In an interview back in March 2022, Tuchel singled him out, stating:
“It is always a pleasure to work with Mason because he is the kind of guy who comes with a smile on his face to every single training session. It is always 100 per cent in matches, he accepts every challenge and that is why it is so nice to work with him.”
According to ESPN, Manchester United hopes to complete a deal to sign Mount. Despite Erik Ten Hag’s concerns about the potential effects of the continuing struggle for control of the team.
While the Champions League spot will help in luring the Englan international to join the Red Devils as the Dutchman prepares to complete all the signings before the start of the pre-season.
Thus, Man United could finally have the last laugh over Liverpool as Mount decides to snub the Reds.
