Chelsea transfer news – Manchester United yet to meet Mason Mount valuation

As much as Chelsea have tried to persuade him otherwise, it looks like Mason Mount has made up his mind on wanting to leave Stamford Bridge this summer. It’s thought that Liverpool and their league rivals Manchester United want to sign him.

However, according to the latest report from Independent, Manchester United are yet to meet the £55m valuation which Chelsea have put on Mount. It remains to be seen whether the two clubs value him the same.

Chelsea transfer news – Pochettino must choose between Mendy and Kepa

With two amazing goalkeepers at their disposal, both of which are more than capable of competing at a high level, it’s inevitable that Chelsea will have to sell one.

According to the latest report from 90min, Chelsea are likely to sell one of Edouard Mendy and Kepa Arrizabalaga, with the former the most likely to be sold. Ultimately, it will all depend on the opinion of Mauricio Pochettino, whenever the club unveils him as manager.

Chelsea transfer news – Declan Rice prefers Arsenal

We reported earlier that Declan Rice has made up his mind about where he wants to sign next. With his four potential destinations being Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Chelsea and Manchester United, it seems the England international would prefer to sign for Arsenal.

This leaves Chelsea pondering other options, as it’s thought they’d still like to upgrade in the midfield position. Names which are still being thrown around are Romeo Lavia and Moises Caicedo – both of which fulfill the number 6 role which would be the key to unlocking Enzo Fernandez.
