Mount would fit into Man Utd's philosophy, says Silvestre

Manchester United want to sign Mason Mount to strengthen their midfield next campaign at all costs. Chelsea have already rejected two bids for him but the Red Devils will not give up.

Both Erik ten Hag and the board believe that the England international can bring many improvements to the squad. And it's not just them. Manchester United legend Mikael Silvestre said the 24-year-old is "a very interesting player".

"Versatility is his obvious quality. I’ve been following him since his loan to Vitesse Arnhem, and there was laughter when he broke into Chelsea's first team. He's a very interesting player, very mobile and loves to play in between the lines, receiving and making precise passes," he told 'FourFourTwo'.

"He's a good finisher as well and is a player in his prime. I think he would be an immediate reinforcement for United and would fit into Erik's philosophy as well," he concluded.
