The West London club have asked United for \u00a358 million plus \u00a37 million in add-ons, a steep \u00a310 million increase on United&#8217;s most recent valuation of the player. Chelsea are also willing to meet in person to resolve the issue.<\/p>\n<p>This sets us up for an interesting next few days, with the saga seeming as though it is reaching its peak.<\/p>\n<p>What makes the situation even more fascinating is that Mount has told Chelsea to let him move to Old Trafford this summer.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Manchester United third bid for Mason Mount is \u00a350m plus \u00a35m add ons, as expected. \ud83d\udd34 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/MUFC?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#MUFC<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Told it also includes better payment terms conditions than last one.<\/p>\n<p>All parties very confident to get it done.<\/p>\n<p>Mount very clear with Chelsea: no new deal, he wants United move. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/UvXOenb7PU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/UvXOenb7PU<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FabrizioRomano\/status\/1672268091961507841?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">June 23, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>This comes after the Englishman already <a href=\"https:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/football\/2023\/05\/31\/manchester-city-hold-talks-over-chelsea-mateo-kovacic\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">agreed personal terms<\/a> with the Red Devils, demonstrating his intent to make the move go through.<\/p>\n<p>Should he join Erik ten Hag&#8217;s side, Mount could provide invaluable creative quality in the middle of the park, giving United an upgrade on Christian Eriksen which would, in turn, allow their strength in depth to improve dramatically.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/06\/24\/manchester-united-sale-end-game\/\" target=\"_self\">Manchester United Sale Nearly Complete as New Bid Is Viewed Favourably &#8211; Deal Now Heading Towards End-Game<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Main image credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2mj4DL1\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Daniel<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/2.0\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CC BY 2.0<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mason Mount has told Chelsea he wants to join Manchester United this summer, according to Fabrizio Romano.
