Trevoh Chalobah has reacted to Mason Mount’s impending exit from Chelsea.
The defender took to Twitter following the confirmation that Manchester United had agreed a deal with Chelsea for Mount, whom Chalobah has played with throughout the majority of their youth and senior careers.
Chalobah posted: “My boy” along with a crying emoji and broken heart emoji, as he prepares to say goodbye to his fellow Cobham graduate.
The pair have worked their way through the ranks at academy level to play key roles in the Blues’ first team set-up.
Now though, Mount is ready to take on a new challenge and will be making the switch to Red ahead of his move to Old Trafford.
United schedule Mount medical
According to Matt Law, the 24-year-old will undergo his medical on Monday, July 3 and assuming all is successful, he’ll be ready for United’s pre-season tour which kicks off on July 12.
In 195 appearances for Chelsea, he scored 33 goals and assisted a further 37. The England international will now play a pivotal role in Erik ten Hag’s midfield as the manager looks to build on a promising season in M16.
