Manchester United could face the possibility of an exit for Mason Mount<\/a> in the summer transfer window, as the midfielder continues to be linked with a Premier League<\/a> switch.<\/p>\n The 27-year-old is approaching three years since his \u00a355million move from Chelsea<\/a>, but has struggled to make a regular impact, making just 66 appearances for the club so far with seven goals and two assists in that time.<\/p>\n Fitness has been a key concern for Mount, but even with those issues, former Man United chief scout Mick Brown claims that he has been an excellent presence in training and around the dressing room.<\/p>\n Speaking to Football Insider<\/a> about the midfielder and a possible exit, Brown said: “There\u2019s going to be no shortage of interest in a player like Mount. He\u2019s got a very good reputation and he\u2019s spoken about very highly at Man United.<\/p>\n \u201cEverybody I speak to says what a wonderful trainer he is, he works very hard and his general demeanour around the club and in the dressing room is good.<\/p>\n FOLLOW OUR MAN UNITED FB PAGE! Latest news and analysis via the MEN\u2019s Manchester United Facebook page<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s always good to hear if you\u2019re looking into a player because it\u2019s important to bring people in who have the right attitude and application.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m told Aston Villa have been keen on him before and I\u2019m sure he\u2019s still on their radar, and then you\u2019ve got teams like Fulham who will be looking if he is made available.<\/p>\n \u201cI can imagine there are a number of Premier League teams who could do with a player like Mount. It\u2019s just about whether he can stay fit for long enough to make a difference, I think that\u2019s what will make or break any move for him, and the money involved as well.\u201d<\/p>\n MANCHESTER, ENGLAND – JANUARY 17: Mason Mount of Manchester United celebrates scoring a goal which is later disallowed following a VAR review during the Premier League match between Manchester United and Manchester City at Old Trafford on January 17, 2026 in Manchester, England.

We\u2019ve just had to be patient really.”<\/p>\n At times this season, Mount has shown plenty of quality as either a false nine, a number ten or in the midfield pivot, but it remains to be seen how much more he can impact on his return.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/1772403789_210_0_Mount.jpg\")
