Klopp admits Mounts price tag

Klopp’s past comments about Mount have re-emerged amid Liverpool’s interest in the England star.

The German suggested that the midfielder was worth at least £60million in 2019 after he made his England debut.

Despite Liverpool’s interest, Chelsea would be reluctant to lose Mount and reportedly remain optimistic they can convince the player to stay.

Mount has been at Chelsea since the age of six and has been one of the team’s most consistent performers since breaking into the squad four years ago.

However, the midfielder is allegedly on £75,000-a-week, which makes him one of the lowest earners at Chelsea.

The Blues have said to be open to making the player a sizeable offer, with talks due to resume between all parties.

Meanwhile, reports claim that Liverpool are monitoring the situation closely and have put plans in place for a summer move, while Juventus are also thought to be interested.
