Coach Thomas Tuchel has hardly arrived at FC Bayern when the first reports circulate that the record champions are allegedly interested in an ex-player of the new coach. Like the english one times reported, Munich are considering taking advantage of Mason Mount’s situation at Chelsea. A commitment is being considered. The Blues are reportedly dependent on player sales because they need to raise a larger sum to avoid problems with the Premier League’s financial fair play rules.
Mount is contractually bound to Chelsea until 2024, but a departure in the coming summer is becoming increasingly likely, it is said. His departure is expected at Stamford Bridge. However, it can be assumed that the London club will demand at least 50 million pounds – the equivalent of around 57 million euros – for the attacking midfielder.

The market value of the 36-time England international is 65 million euros after the most recent 10 million devaluation. Tuchel is considered a great admirer of Mount, who played 86 games under the coach, delivering 19 goals and 20 assists. Also and especially Liverpool FC should show serious interest. It remains to be seen whether and to what extent the supposed competitor Bayern has any need in central midfield.
It was recently announced that FCB wanted to bring another assistant to Säbener Straße in Anthony Barry, who works for Chelsea and the Portuguese national team. Tuchel’s former club have to generate income after their record-breaking transfer season because losses of more than 105 million pounds (119.5 million euros) have not been allowed over the past three years. The current season, in which there is a negative transfer balance of 543.66 million euros, will be included in the calculation from summer 2024, while the 2019/20 season, in which Chelsea lost 32.5 million pounds (37 million €) made a profit. Coach Graham Potter’s current squad consists of 32 players – including homegrown Mount.
