Chelsea are confident the club will reach an agreement with Mason Mount, according to Simon Phillips.
The England international is approaching the final year of his deal at Chelsea. The Blues will reportedly sell the midfielder if he doesn’t sign a new contract to avoid losing him as a free agent next year.

Phillips told GIVEMESPORT: “Right now, I’m told that the focus is on getting Mount back to full fitness and back to better form.
“We saw him come in against Real Madrid and he was of the only players that looked like a threat for Chelsea.
“That’s what Chelsea want right now, They just want him to be on the pitch and playing well, but the talks will come and Chelsea are feeling a little bit more optimistic that the new set of terms that they’re going to put on the table will hopefully be accepted by Mason Mount.”
Mount played a key role as Chelsea won the Champions League in 2021.
