Darren Bent has urged Premier League rivals Liverpool to sign Chelsea star Mason Mount in the summer

Bent believes that the young midfielder would be the perfect fit for Liverpool and has urged the Reds to make a move for him.

Mount will have just one year left on his Chelsea contract at the end of the season and Chelsea will look to sell the midfielder if he fails to sign a Chelsea contract.

Speaking to TalkSport, Bent said: “If you look at the clubs that are in for him, the only one that makes sense for me – and I think they need him – is Liverpool.

“Because they need legs in that midfield. He would add quality to that midfield.”
