Chelsea lost many of their players in the transfer market this season. and now their new coach must quickly assemble their squad and prepare to start the new season.
I think MU is more interested in getting Mason Mount. it was even rumored that Mason Mount himself wanted to move to MU. unfortunately when MU submitted 3 bids to Chelsea and all were rejected. but if Arsenal is involved in these negotiations, I think MU may have to step down.
They did lose a lot of players in the transfer market, but to me, it's like changing your wardrobe. When you have clothing that are no longer useful to you, you should get rid of them, and that's what Chelsea is doing right now. There are many extra players on the team who no longer contribute much to its success. They must get rid of the excess to make room for fresh signings, as the new coach's arrival has requested.
It's not a rumor, Mason Mount has stated publicly that he will not sign a contract extension and that he intends to leave the team. Despite knowing that he is worth the money, Manchester United is unwilling to pay the price tag on his head because he has expressed interest in signing with them. Arsenal will take Mount if Manchester United doesn't close this deal soon.
Chelsea's decision to let go of majority of their squad members this summer transfer window I think is deliberate act. The club has a new manager must have given the club's management some conditions before accepting to be the manager of the side which I think letting go of some members of the squad was part of the conditions.
Mauricio Pochettino wants to overhaul the Chelsea team and then start with his preferred players who'll play to his style. Chelsea is surely gonna be competitive again judging by Pochettino's approach
