Newcastle to battle Liverpool for Chelsea's Mason Mount
The 'Daily Mail' claims that Newcastle are keeping an eye on the situation of Mason Mount, who Chelsea are expected to put up for sale this summer. If the 'Magpies' are serious about the midfielder, they will have to compete with Liverpool, who are also interested in his services.

Mason Mount could make headlines next summer. His possible departure from Chelsea has been accelerated, as the board have not been able to renew him and, under these circumstances, the priority is to sell him when the transfer window opens. In this sense, Liverpool's interest had already emerged, and now, thanks to the 'Daily Mail', it is known that Newcastle have joined the race.
The plan is to take advantage of the fact that he finishes his contract as a Chelsea player in the summer of 2024, so that the Stamford Bridge side should be open to lower offers when the transfer window opens. In this situation, and as the two clubs interested in him have plenty of financial leeway for this type of proposal, the key will be to convince him personally.
One of the key reasons why the Magpies are considering this option so much is that they have to take care of their Financial Fair Play. The new ownership has brought with it a financial boost that has helped the team rise to the top four of the Premier League, but, despite the fact that England tends to have a very high cost compared to other leagues, there are limits that Howe's side must respect.
For Mason Mount, both options could be of interest to him, as it would mean continuing in the top flight of his country's football, fighting for similar goals to those that already occupy his day-to-day life at Chelsea. Incidentally, his current form with Graham Potter at the helm is great, as he has made 32 appearances this season, 26 of them starts.
