Mason Mount has Manchester United from Chelsea last week on a contract running until June 2028, with the option of a further year.
On joining Manchester United, Mount said: “It’s never easy leaving the club where you grew up, but Manchester United will provide an exciting new challenge for the next phase of my career. Having competed against them, I know just how strong a squad it is that I’m joining, and I can’t wait to be part of this group’s drive to win major trophies.
“Everyone can see that the club has made big steps forward under Erik ten Hag. Having met with the manager and discussed his plans, I couldn’t be more excited for the seasons ahead, and am ready for the hard work expected here. I am hugely ambitious; I know how amazing it feels to win major trophies and what it takes to do it. I will be giving everything to experience that again at Manchester United.”
Now, an insight into when United fans may get their first glimpse of their new signing has been provided.
Manchester United fans are likely to get their first glimpse of Mount in a red shirt when the Red Devils take on Leeds in their first pre-season friendly on Wednesday afternoon at 4 pm.
