Midfielder Mason Mount has struggled to make an impact at Manchester United since his arrival, mainly due to injuries.
Described as ‘talented’ by manager Ruben Amorim, Mount has made 13 appearances across all competitions for United this season without registering a goal or assist.
The England international has already been linked with a potential exit, with reports suggesting Italian giants Inter Milan are interested in his signature.
However, journalist Fabrizio Romano has dismissed these claims, stating there is ‘nothing serious’ about Inter Milan’s reported interest in Mount.
With United looking to reduce their wage bill and increase their transfer funds, Mount is among the players who could be sold this summer.
However, journalist David Ornstein believes the Red Devils will unlikely part ways with the Cobham academy graduate.
He said: “You never know in this industry, but I do not expect Mount to leave. Man United will be focused on keeping him fit and bringing the best out of him because they believe he is an excellent fit for manager Amorim’s system and style.
“I don’t see any club offering United the fee needed to generate an accounting profit—especially given concerns over his injury record. I imagine he’s going nowhere.”
Amorim wants to keep Mount despite fitness concerns
Mount made his seventh appearance under Amorim in United’s defeat to Nottingham Forest.
After the game, the Portuguese tactician backed Mount to thrive under him, and he is expected to give the midfielder more opportunities next season.
He can play in the number 10 role, and his return could be a boost for United as they hope to finish the season strongly.
United could struggle to sell Mount due to his persistent injury issues. The most pragmatic approach is to keep him for another season before deciding on his future.
