Chelsea transfer news – Mason Mount has medical at Manchester United

This one was coming, but I’m sure Chelsea fans still aren’t pleased with it.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Mason Mount is undergoing his medical at Carrington at the time of writing this. If all goes to plan, then an announcement could be made very soon. The plan for both Manchester United and Mount was to make this deal happen but Chelsea did not want it – They fought a losing battle.

Chelsea transfer news – Steady progress for Moises Caicedo

Chelsea have been trying their luck with Moises Caicedo since January. However, when negotiating with Brighton, you must expect for negotiations to go on forever and ever. They certainly drive a hard bargain on the South Coast.

However, according to Romano, Chelsea are hopeful they can find a resolution with Brighton. Personal terms aren’t an issue, but they have been in direct contact with Brighton which is a sign of progress at least.

Chelsea transfer news – Milan hope for Christian Pulisic reduction

Further, Romano has provided an update on a potential outgoing. Regarding Christian Pulisic, the interested club AC Milan, are hopeful they can swindle Chelsea by paying less than their asking price. Additionally, Pulisic is keen on the move so personal terms will be no issue.
