Liverpool now reportedly believe that they could now have an opportunity to sign Mason Mount from Chelsea at a bargain fee.

According to journalist Ben Jacobs, the Anfield side are confident that they can snipe the 24-year-old England international from their Premier League rivals due to stalling contract talks between Mount and Chelsea, though Mauricio Pochettino’s arrival could still play a factor.

Whilst nothing is final at this point, Liverpool could still be in the driving seat to sign Mount, with the prospect of playing under Jurgen Klopp one that could be an appealing one for the Chelsea star, who could also be up for a move to Merseyside to restart his career.

Mount has endured two difficult years at Chelsea, and whilst the midfielder remains a fan favourite at Stamford Bridge, the west London side could soon find themselves in a position where they have to sell the 24-year-old, where Liverpool will be willing to make the catch.

Indeed, whilst a bargain fee for Mount could still amount to a figure north of £50m or even £60m, there’s no denying that the Chelsea man could be an incredible coup for Liverpool, and Klopp will be the ideal manager to get get the best out of the playmaker.

Liverpool have to make Mount deal happen with Chelsea talks stalling

Sometimes a player comes along in the market that feels like a perfect match for a certain team, and in the case of Mount and Liverpool, that’s exactly what it feels like this summer, with the 24-year-old a talent who was born to play for the Anfield side.

With Chelsea talks stalling, Liverpool could have their golden chance to bring Mount to Merseyside, and with a potential bargain now on the table, Klopp and his team have to work in overdrive to bring the England international up north to Merseyside.
