The midfielder had been hoping for vastly improved terms but the Chelsea hierarchy have so far been unwilling to match his expectations despite reports that new boss Mauricio Pochettino would like to eep him.

Mount close to Manchester United move

Now, according to the Telegraph, Mount has agreed personal terms to move to Manchester United this summer, with both clubs still yet to agree a transfer fee.

The England international has attracted interest from Arsenal and Liverpool but it now appears Erik ten Hag's Manchester United have won the bidding war.
