Mason Mount has a number of prospective suitors for a summer transfer away from Chelsea and might match up with former Chelsea teammate Jorginho at Arsenal. Jorginho has given Mason Mount a transfer recommendation to Chelsea, saying, "I am sure."
Given that the former Chelsea midfielder supported Mikel Arteta after he joined the Gunners, Jorginho may hold the key to Arsenal's ability to recruit Mason Mount this summer.
Goal reports that negotiations have begun between Arsenal and the England international, with Liverpool also being mentioned as a potential suitor for the 24-year-old product of the Blues system. As one of Chelsea's season-ending injuries, Mount has been able to concentrate on his summer plans as a result of his current season-ending injury.
According to reports, Mount has reportedly turned down a new contract offer from Chelsea, despite Frank Lampard's return as interim manager's inability to convince the player to stay. This has made it possible for Moutn to be connected to other teams, with a potential pairing with Arsenal manager Arteta on the horizon.
Former Chelsea teammate Jorginho, who has previously stated that working with Arteta was a huge draw for him joining the club, might convince him to sign. The Italian midfielder, who joined Arsenal in January, started against his previous team on Monday night in a convincing 3-1 victory.
He spoke highly of Arteta when he joined the Gunners, indicating a protracted Spanish chase. In his first interview with the team, he said to Arsenal.com: "He was a great impact since I knew he tried to recruit me before a few times, but it didn't work out for other reasons, not because of my wishes. Naturally, he had a significant impact.
As Chelsea won the 2021 Champions League, Mount and Jorginho both played significant roles. Mount assisted Kai Havertz on the game-winning goal in the final's 1-0 victory over Manchester City. Jorginho previously won the Europa League with Maurizio Sarri's Chelsea team. He also collaborated with the Italian at Napoli, and in a later interview, Jorginho compared Arteta to the current Lazio manager.
The midfielder said of Arteta in a statement to beIN Sports: "He [Arteta] reminds me a little bit of Sarri. I'm used to working with a management who pays attention to the little print.
Jorginho stated, "For me, the final difference between a good squad and a successful team is details. "I am positive that he worships [the details] to such an extent.
I've only been here a short while, but I'm sure there will be something new every day, which is why I'm also so excited since I can already tell that I have a lot to learn here.
The fact that Jorginho has only made five Premier League starts since his January arrival at Arsenal means that he has yet to firmly establish himself in the starting lineup. This summer, the team is likely to make changes to its midfield, and Mount is among the candidates under consideration, along with Moises Caicedo and Declan Rice, a childhood buddy.
