Mason Mount to train with England senior squad

Chelsea youngster Mason Mount will spend a week training with the England senior squad before the World Cup.

The Daily Mail claims Gareth Southgate has invited the Chelsea youngster to train with the senior side after being impressed with his form on loan at Vitesse Arnhem.

Mount, one of the highest-rated youngsters at Stamford Bridge, has starred for Vitesse this season and looks set to be the next young star to make a push for the Chelsea first-team squad.

Southgate is said to have been monitoring the player during his loan spell and wants to get a closer look at the creative midfielder.

This summer’s World Cup has come too soon for Mount, but Southgate is showing signs that he is planning for the future with the Three Lions.

Mount has impressed during his season on loan in the Eredivisie, scoring 14 goals and registering a further 11 assists in 32 games.
