Chelsea midfielder 'set' to sign new long-term contract.

 By CFC 247. 

The Chelsea midfielder is open to extending his stay at Stamford Bridge. 

Mason Mount is reportedly currently waiting for Chelsea to offer him a new long-term deal.

The London giants announced on Monday, Sept 5th that Reece James signed new contract that will keep him at Stamford Bridge until 2028.

Mount is allegedly next in line for an extension alongside with Edouard Mendy and N’Golo Kante, and according to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, there have been talks for ‘a long time’ over his future.

Romano suggests that the midfielder is currently waiting for the Blues to submit their final proposal, with talks set to resume in the near future.

The 23-year-old midfielder was again a key player for the Blues during the 2021-22 season, making 53 appearances in all competitions, scoring 13 goals and providing 16 assists in the process.

The attacker’s contract only has two years left to run, though, and he is believed to be one of the lowest-paid players at Stamford Bridge despite his status.

Over the summer, Mount revealed that he was “very happy” at Chelsea and was hopeful to extend his stay at the club.

“After the last game of the season we had a little get-together at the hotel and he [Todd Boehly] was there with the rest of the consortium, it was good to meet them in person and speak to them all,” Mount told the Evening Standard at the time.

“It’s so exciting what the future holds. It’s an unknown but the way it’s started is really exciting to see what’s going to happen.

“We’re a team that over the last ten years has been up there and pushing and that is where we want to stay. Speaking to them about their goals and aims, we’re on the same page.

“So hopefully that continues. I’ve got two years left on my contract and I’m very, very happy here. Those talks will hopefully be starting soon.”

Liverpool, Man City and Man Utd have all previously been credited with an interest in the 23-year-old midfielder, who has made 166 appearances for the Blues in all competitions, scoring 30 goals and providing 31 assists.

Graham Potter has succeeded in these three areas where Tuchel failed.

 OPINION: Graham Potter has succeeded in these three areas where Tuchel failed.  The Blues were back in Premier League action on Saturday, and had sealed a 3-0 victory over Wolves at the Bridge.  The game had seen goals come from the Blues' attacking options, something which had rarely been seen in the Tuchel era.  Not just that, there were noticeable changes and improvement in team set up that were not seen under the former German Boss. All of which will be highlighted below.  Firstly, the handing of debut to Chelsea's signing, Carney Chukwuemeka. Graham Potter's choice to hand one of his starlets a debut demonstrates the trust that he has in the young players at Stamford Bridge that can help him through a tricky run. It's harder than it seems to just trust the youth though.  Tuchel struggled to fully implement the pathway desired and was always focused on the here and now, the short term. He felt warmth with experience. Potter already looks to have brough...
