Mount publicly invites Chelsea to open new contract talks

Mason Mount has declared he's happy and committed to Chelsea.

Mount, 23, has two years left on his deal but is one of the lowest-paid players in the squad, having not penned fresh terms since making his first-team debut in 2019.

"I've got two years left on my contract and I'm very, very happy here," he said. "Those talks will hopefully be starting soon."

Mount has revealed he is excited by the new project under Todd Boehly.

"After the last game of the season we had a little get-together at the hotel and he (Boehly) was there with the rest of the consortium," he added.

"It was good to meet them in person and speak to them all. It's so exciting what the future holds.

"It's an unknown, but the way it's started is really exciting to see what's going to happen.

"We're a team that over the last ten years has been up there and pushing and that is where we want to stay.

"Speaking to them about their goals and aims, we're on the same page. So hopefully that continues."
