Mason Mount has responded to whether he would make a move like Jack Grealish did to Manchester City for £100 million to leave Chelsea.
The England international has emerged as one of the Blues most vital players in recent years. He broke through into the squad under the management of Frank Lampard in 2019 and became a key figure.
Having impressed the Chelsea legend at Derby County on loan the season before in the Championship he earned his opportunity.

In 2021, Mount was a crucial part of Chelsea's Champions League victory, putting in excellent displays throughout the tournament.
He even provided the assist for Kai Havertz's goal in the final against Manchester City. In the following season under Tuchel, Mount was once again the main man in the squad, he racked up the most goal contributions of any player in the team.
For his hard work he was awarded with the Chelsea Men's Player of the Year for the second season running.

While he does most of his work on the pitch, Mount has also been revealed to be starring on the cover of Tatler with Emilia Boateng for the December issue.
In an interview with them the 23-year-old was quizzed on his footballing career and life off the pitch.
One of the questions posed to him was whether he would ever consider a move similar to the one his international teammate Grealish made to Manchester City.

He responded: "I've always been a Chelsea boy. I'm very, very happy here.
"We've been winning some silverware, which is a big goal of mine, I always want to win things."
Although a big money move may be tempting for Mount, he 'bleeds blue' and seemingly has no plans to leave Stamford Bridge anytime soon.
