New MUFC signing, Mason Mount has come out to say that it became clear that he was not in Chelsea’s plans ahead of this summer. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he immediately knew he was becoming surplus to requirement at Stamford Bridge, so immediately United came calling, he saw the opportunity to move to a massive club with iconic players.
Mount added that he is also pleased to have come in early, so he can prepare for next season with his new teammates.
His words, “Several months ago, it became clear that I wasn’t in Chelsea’s plans moving forward. Once I knew that United were involved, my decision was made up. A massive club, huge iconic players have played here, and I wanted to be a part of that from the beginning. Getting in early and ready for pre-season to start was a main objective of mine as well.”
“I’ve always seen myself as a midfielder or a number eight that can obviously get forward, attack, try and score goals, create goals, but also be able to do the other side as well and defend and help the team when we’re under pressure. That’s obviously a massive focus of mine, being able to come here and help the boys in that situation and I know what I can bring to this team and now it’s about going and doing it on the pitch.”
