Mount is set to enter the final year of his contract at Stamford Bridge and has turned down several attempts from Chelsea to sign him up to a new deal in London.

The Reds are also tracking the likes of Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister, Conor Gallagher and Khephren Thuram ahead of what may be a busy summer.
