Chelsea star Mason Mount has undergone an insane body transformation and looks in serious shape ahead of the new campaign.
Mount got his chance in the Chelsea first-team in 2019 under Frank Lampard following an impressive loan spell under the Blues record goalscorer at Derby County.
He's since gone on to become one of Chelsea's most important players, playing 160 times - while he's also also earned 31 caps for England and is a regular starter for the Three Lions.

Last season was Mount's most productive when it comes to stats for Chelsea, as he scored 11 goals in the Premier League and assisted a further ten.
But the 23-year-old is evidently working hard to improve on that for the new campaign. Fresh pics which have emerged show Mount in the gym and the attacking midfielder appears to have been pumping a whole lot of iron, showing off a much more muscular physique.
The former Vitesse loanee had a slight, scrawny build that many felt he would need to change in order to cope with the demands of top-level men's football.
And Mount definitely looks to have bulked up considerably ahead of what will be his fourth season at Stamford Bridge, with fans thinking he's been doing the Bayern Munich training plan.
In recent years, Bayern have caught the eye after a slew of their players got absolutely jacked. Midfielder Leon Goretzka, formerly of Schalke, is the most high-profile example, but fans were also in disbelief over how big the likes of Robert Lewandowski, Alphonso Davies and Philippe Coutinho got.
Mount's new build means he's giving Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay a run for his money this summer.
The Scotland international looks like he's spent his entire summer holidays in the gym to get as shredded as possible for the first pre-season of Erik ten Hag's tenure.
His teammate Axel Tuanzebe also looks in freakish physical condition, with his body resembling that of a UFC heavyweight than a footballer.
