Manchester United are reportedly not keen on selling playmaker Mason Mount just a year after his £55 million arrival from Chelsea.
According to GIVEMESPORT, Mason Mount is in line to remain at Manchester United despite struggling with inconsistent form and injuries since arriving at Old Trafford.
Mount enduring a nightmare debut season at Old Trafford
The 25-year-old has struggled with injuries all through the campaign and has not played a single match for the Red Devils since November.
Unfortunately for Mount, things have not gone as planned in his first campaign at Old Trafford since joining from Chelsea.
He has not been able to get a single-goal contribution in eight Premier League games, and only has one assist in 12 appearances across all competitions so far, with the single assist coming in the win over Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup.
He has played in a handful of midfield spots this campaign, but has not been able to find his rhythm at Old Trafford.
Mount’s position safe amid Sir Jim Ratcliffe overhaul
Manchester United began a new era last month, with Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s 25% purchase of the club following lengthy negotiations with the Glazer family handing him the club’s operations. However, Mount is unlikely to be one of the high-profile stars on the chopping block during a squad overhaul.
The above report adds that the Red Devils know that they would be forced to make a significant loss on their initial investment if they cash in prematurely during the summer, while the hierarchy are supportive of the player.
The England international’s future at Old Trafford is secure for the time being, and there is confidence that he will prove to be a shrewd signing in the long-term.
Mount made his name as a creative midfielder, and those who know him best, believe that’s his strongest position, scoring 27 goals and providing 24 assists in 137 Premier League appearances.
The elephant in the room is Mount, who wasn’t signed by United to play in that role, and skipper Bruno Fernandes is a mainstay as No. 10. Regardless, he will hope to find his best form for the Red Devils in the final stretch of the campaign to help his side finish the campaign strongly.
