Chelsea are optimistic about extending Mason Mount’s contract, with the 23-year-old playmaker expected to stay at Stamford Bridge in the long term. The contract of the England international expires in 18 months, but the Blues are said to be making progress in negotiations.

The Reds were keeping an eye on his situation because Jurgen Klopp is a huge fan of Mount’s abilities. However, the report insists that the club and player are still on the same page, which is good news for fans. Mount would focus on getting back into the team now that he has returned from England duties, and then hold talks.
Mount is currently paid £80,000 per week and has 18 months left on his contract. With the potential new contract, his salary will rise significantly to meet or exceed the standards of the club’s top earners.
