Mason Mount agent decision drops huge 'hint' over Chelsea future amid Liverpool transfer links

Liverpool-linked Mason Mount has reportedly appointed a new agent to manage a potential transfer from Chelsea.

According to a report by the Mail, Mount has appointed Neil Fewings from Wasserman Media Group in a move that is the strongest indication yet that he is set to leave Stamford Bridge at the end of the season.

The report also claims that Mount had been looked after by dad Tony for the last 18 months since leaving his previous management company, Stellar Football. Mount has been linked with a move to Liverpool in recent months.

The 24-year-old is under contract at Chelsea until 2024 - but negotiations on a new deal have reportedly stalled. That has led to continued speculation linking him with a summer switch to Anfield, while Manchester United are also reportedly eyeing a move for the England international.

Midfield reinforcements are set to be on the agenda for Liverpool during the summer transfer window. Jude Bellingham, Mount, Moises Caicedo and Matheus Nunes are just some of the names being linked with the Reds.

Speaking recently, Chelsea boss Graham Potter said he was 'not naive' about the future of Mount. He said: "He's absolutely normal . He's happy around the place and wants to help the team win.

"My feelings for Mason are clear - I think he's a fantastic person firstly and I have spoken to him numerous times about his situation, his football and about life generally.

"But sometimes these things happen - they're complicated and it's best I speak little about it."
