Mason Mount has said Chelsea's players are excited about the Todd Boehly era.

American billionaire Boehly and consortium Clearlake completed a £4.25billion summer takeover from Roman Abramovich.

And Mount believes his teammates are looking forward to what the future holds at Stamford Bridge.

"It is a new era, so we all feel very excited and, whenever a new season comes around, you are excited about what's possible," Mount told the Evening Standard.

"I can't wait to see what happens."

He added: "We've had a break now but we'll see and we hope it is going to be a good year.

"I am feeling rested and ready to go."
