Liverpool and Arsenal interested in Chelsea midfielder?

Liverpol and Arsenal could go head-to-head to sign Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount at the end of the campaign.

The Blues star will enter the final year of his contract this summer and he has yet to give the green light to a renewal.

Hence, the hierarchy are likely to sanction his sale and Football Insider claim that both Liverpool and Arsenal want him.

The Reds have already spoken with his entourage over a transfer and could open talks with the Blues pretty soon.

Arsenal, on the other hand, are still evaluating their options for the summer.

They are keen on landing a defensive midfielder but could also spend on a creative option depending on the manager.

Granit Xhaka has been superb from the number eight role this term but there are doubts over his future this summer.

If the Gunners spend on a young playmaker, there is a possibility that the Swiss star could be shown the exit door.

Mount could be signed for around £60 million this summer.
