Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Chelsea have rejected Manchester United’s third bid for Mason Mount but are willing to meet in person to discuss the transfer.

United latest offer for the England international, 24, was £55million, but Chelsea are holding out for £65m (£58m up front, £7m in add-ons). There is now a chance Erik ten Hag will walk away from the transfer, as United’s third bid was supposed to be their last.

But Chelsea want at least £65m and are in no rush to sell the Academy graduate even though he has just one year left on his contract and they would lose him for nothing next year. Chelsea have made it clear they would like him to stay so have not given up on him signing and are there fore  reluctant to take a low offer
