Reports have claimed that Erik ten Hag is beginning to get concerned in his quest to sign Mason Mount from Chelsea.

According to ESPN, the Manchester United manager is fearful about the rest of his summer plans, due to being in the dark over funds.

It looks as if Mount is going to be on the move when the summer transfer window opens, after seemingly rejecting any advances from the Blues to sign a new contract.

While it wasn’t confirmed, the player’s coy comments when questioned at yesterday’s Formula One Grand Prix in Barcelona said all that needs to be known about where his head is at right now.

Chelsea will undoubtedly be losing a strong member of their first team, and the real blow will be that they weren’t able to keep hold of a player Mauricio Pochettino reportedly wanted to keep and build around.

Ten Hag worried about Mount

However, when looking at the season just gone, it was certainly a weak one for the two-time player of the season as the whole club slumbered in 12^th in the league.

Last week, reports claimed that personal terms had been agreed between Mount and United, however it has been a regular theme that the two clubs are still a way part in their valuation.

Chelsea will be hoping to get as much as possible out of a player that has just a year left on his contract before he is available as a free agent.

They will also be looking to start to get some of their own deals over the line for their new manager. It has been reported that they have missed out on the signing of Manuel Ugarte from Sporting Lisbon already.
