“Over the years I’ve thoroughly enjoyed connecting with you all on Twitter. Sadly, the platform is changing so I have decided to delete my account.
“You all can still connect with me on my other social media platforms here: http://masonmount.Komi.io. Take care, Mason.” he tweeted.
Mason Mount, who made his debut for Chelsea in 2019 under former manager Frank Lampard, has since made 195 appearances for the club and scored 33 goals. However, his future at Stamford Bridge has been a topic of discussion in recent months.
His current contract with the club expires at the end of the 2023-2024 season, and there has been no agreement between him and the club over a new deal yet. As the summer transfer window approaches, Chelsea must decide whether to cash in on Mount or risk losing him for free next summer.
Lampard, who currently serves as the interim coach of Chelsea, praised Mount’s abilities, describing him as a fantastic player for both Derby and Chelsea. Lampard is optimistic about the prospects of working with the young midfielder, given his past experiences with him.
