Liverpool have made Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount their top summer target after Jurgen Klopp decided to end their pursuit of Jude Bellingham, according to reports...
The Liverpool midfield has taken a lot of the blame for their struggles this season with Klopp’s side currently eighth in the Premier League table, 12 points adrift of fourth-placed Manchester United and 29 points behind leaders Arsenal.
There is little sign that Mount will renew his contract at Chelsea with the England international having just over a year left on his deal. Speaking about Mount’s contract situation in his first press conference as caretaker boss, Lampard said: “I don’t know enough about it to talk about it and I think it would be wrong for me to delve into anything other than the fact that Mason has always been a fantastic player for me. From my days at Derby and the impact he had there to coming back to Chelsea.
“In those terms, I just want to see him perform on the pitch and of course, we have a good relationship so we’ll talk a lot. “I think that he’s a huge player for Chelsea and has been in his time here so I look forward to talking to him more.”
