‘Very difficult’: Fabrizio Romano delivers s worrying news for Chelsea fans after speaking to sources yesterday
According to Fabrizio Romano, he has received information suggesting that Chelsea will face significant challenges in extending Mason Mount’s contract.
In his AMP show, Romano expressed a lack of confidence after consulting sources, indicating that it will be difficult for the club to retain their two-time player of the year.
Mount has experienced a particularly tough season at Stamford Bridge, with his individual struggles being more pronounced than those of any other player.
Mount’s limited appearances in the latter half of the season can be attributed to a combination of injuries and a decline in performance. These circumstances occurred amidst a disappointing World Cup campaign with the England national team.
Consequently, speculation has arisen regarding his future at the club, which has been his long-time home until now.
Romano has bad news on Mount
Previous reports have indicated a significant disparity in contractual demands between Mason Mount and Chelsea. It has been suggested that Mount turned down a similar contract offer to that of Reece James, another product of the club’s academy, who signed a new deal earlier in the season.
This development has created the potential for Mount to consider a departure from Stamford Bridge, which seemed highly unlikely just a year ago.
According to the latest update from Fabrizio Romano, the prospects of Mason Mount staying at Chelsea in West London do not appear to be positive.
He said: “Speaking to some sources today, it is going to be very difficult to extend Mason Mount, really complicated.”
There are reports suggesting that certain individuals at Chelsea are eager to retain Joao Felix for the upcoming season. This situation raises the possibility that the club may have to make a choice between keeping Joao Felix or Mason Mount.
However, many supporters may feel that the club’s decision could be misguided, favoring the wrong option in their opinion.
