Frank Lampard admitted last night that it’s looking likely Mason Mount will leave Chelsea this summer. The England international, who missed the Blues’ 4-1 defeat to United at Old Trafford last night with a pelvis injury, has registered just three goals and six assists across all competitions this term. “I think with Mason particularly as an individual, I don’t know what the solution’s going to be because it’s a club and Mason issue,” the ex-Everton boss told Sky Sports (as quoted by . “I don’t know exactly where Mason is at personally.
In the old days it would by ‘why are you leaving the club, you shouldn’t.’ But in the modern day, players move on. It’s just a shame we’ve got into this situation where it looks like it’s happening maybe now.”
The dynamic midfielder has struggled with injuries this season but there’s no doubt that on his day he’s a quality player.
