Mason Mount is in line for a pay-rise at Chelsea.
Chelsea are preparing to open discussions with midfielder Mount over a bumper new contract, according to Fabrizio Romano.
The England international still has 18 months to run on his current deal, but the Blues don’t want to waste any time in tying Mount down long-term.
Officials at Stamford Bridge hope to begin negotiations with the 23-year-old in the coming months in order to avoid any issues, although the player is considered happy and keen to extend his stay beyond 2024.
