Mason Mount has been spotted leaving his Cheshire Hotel on Tuesday with the midfielder expected to imminently complete his £60m move to Manchester United.
The England star appeared at United’s Carrington training facility on Monday for his medical with the Red Devils at last set to secure the Chelsea star’s services.
Erik ten Hag‘s side were rebuffed several times in their approach for Mount this summer, but agreed a fee at the fifth time of asking.
Mount was pictured on Tuesday morning drinking a coffee as he prepared to head back to United’s Carrington training ground to shoot his media commitments for the club.
He was surrounded by several members of his entourage and a few security guards ahead of adding the final touches to his transfer.
On Monday, the player was accompanied by a few individuals when he arrived at United’s training ground in a Mercedes early on in the morning, entering through the back gate.
With an initial £55m figure, followed by £5m in add-ons finally agreed between the rivals after weeks of negotiations and rejected advances, the player then completed his medical.
The 24-year-old is set to put pen to paper on his contract at Old Trafford, signing a five-year deal worth £250,000-a-week with the option of another year.
And he appears to be arriving at the perfect time for Ten Hag and Co, who are due to begin their pre-season training this week ahead of a friendly against rivals Leeds in Oslo next week.
Mount could make his debut for his new club in the match in the Norwegian capital.
The English star arrives at United on the back of a trying 2022-23 season with Chelsea, in which he struggled for both form and fitness.
