Mason Mount had initially told team-mates he wanted to stay. But as the weeks went on, and irritation over the club’s approach took hold, the prospect of leaving became a reality.
Chelsea had reached a verbal agreement with Mount on a long-term deal before the World Cup started last November, but then pulled their offer in January and instead put a formal one-year contract on the table in February.
