Ten Hag hints at a ‘very important role for Mason Mount as they come face to face

Mason Mount has been informed by ERIK TEN HAG that he should play a “very important” role for Manchester United.

The £60 million contract Mason Mount signed with the Red Devils would pay him almost £250,000 each week.

Mount, 24, left Chelsea and has already signed a five-year contract with United. He will add to Ten Hag’s midfield options as he prepares for a new Premier League season and a Champions League challenge.

Along with Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro, Mount will probably face competition from Scott McTominay, Fred, and Christian Eriksen for a position in the starting eleven.

During their first meeting together since the trade was finalized, Ten Hag has now acknowledged that he has huge ambitions for the midfielder.

He told Mount: “I want you to be a very important player for this team.”

In response, Mount looked ready to go as he replied: “Cheers gaffer, thank you.

“I better go and get on the pitch now. Get my boots on.”

Mount will be able to add goals and assists to the Man United midfield, as he managed 58 goals and contributed 53 assists in 279 club appearances.

Mason Mount arrives at Carrington to complete £60m Man Utd transfer as Ten Hag set to make long-awaited first signing

The 24-year-old Chelsea player, Mason Mount is reportedly close to a £60 million deal.

And as he draws closer to joining the Red Devils, Mason Mount was seen on camera on Monday morning entering Man Utd’s Carrington facilities.

He will likely be Erik ten Hag’s first acquisition during the summer transfer window.

The agreement is thought to include a £55 million payment and $5 million in add-ons. He will sign a deal for almost £250,000 per week for five years, with the possibility of an additional year.

His 16-year stay at Chelsea, which he joined at the age of 8, comes to an end with the departure.

United’s initial THREE offers for Mount were turned down by the Blues, who demanded a hefty price even though his contract was set to expire in 2024. But at a meeting last week, the talks finally made progress.

And he is about to join a lengthy list of players who have left Chelsea.

Blues supporters will find it difficult to accept Mount’s move since they see him as the crowning achievement of their legendary generation of indigenous talent.

Last year, Chelsea chairman Todd Boehly and Mount were unable to reach a new agreement, and negotiations came to an end when Mount turned down a one-year extension in February.
