Mount set for new Chelsea deal as Lampard's influence is felt


The England Under-21 midfielder is keen to stay at Stamford Bridge for the next few years and talks have begun regarding a fresh contract
 
Mason Mount is set to be offered a new long-term contract at Chelsea with Frank Lampard keen to tie down a player who impressed under his stewardship at Derby County.
England Under-21 international Mount spent the 2018-19 season playing under Lampard at Pride Park on loan, making 44 appearances, scoring 11 goals and providing six assists in all competitions.
The 20-year-old's current deal at Stamford Bridge expires in less than two years, but the appointment of Lampard has helped convince Mount that his long-term future is in west London.
