Liverpool are 'monitoring' Mason Mount's current situation at Chelsea ahead of a summer move, but two rival Premier League clubs are also interested.

The Lowdown: Mount on the move?

With each passing week, the more the 24-year-old's future at Stamford Bridge appears to be thrown into doubt, with contract talks at an impasse.

Mount has been linked with a move to Liverpool numerous times recently and his talks for a new deal at SW6 are apparently breaking down, with the Reds potentially seeing him as a key addition to their midfield this summer.

It doesn't look as though their interest is going away any time soon but they will be joined by rival suitors, following a fresh update.

The Latest: Liverpool 'monitoring' player

Taking to Twitter, ESPN journalist James Olley claimed that Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United are all keeping an eye on Mount's situation:

"Liverpool, Man City and Man Utd are among the clubs monitoring Mason Mount's contract situation at Chelsea. Talks ongoing over an extension but nothing close, potential bidders yet to formalise interest. Current CFC deal expires in 2024."

The Verdict: Get it done?

At one point, the thought of Mount leaving Chelsea seemed highly unlikely, considering he has been there since childhood and is seemingly happy there.

It could be that he feels undervalued in terms of his contract offer, however - he earns £80,000 per week currently - and for that reason a move to Liverpool does all of a sudden feel possible.

Mount could be a brilliant signing for the Reds if they did strike a deal this summer, registering 51 goal involvements (27 goals and 24 assists) in 126 appearances in the Premier League, as well as being called a 'manager’s dream' by Adam Lallana.

He has the intelligence to thrive in a Liverpool midfield that demands both hard work and technical class, and he could bring the legs that have been badly missing in the middle of the park this season.
