Mount was a key figure in Chelsea’s UEFA Champions League triumph in the 2020/2021 season. “I have huge ambitions. I know how great it is to win big trophies. I will do everything I can to bring that experience to Manchester United.”
Mount’s arrival adds to a formidable midfield that already includes Casemiro, Bruno Fernandes, and Christian Eriksen.
