MANCHESTER UNITED have launched a third and "final" £55million bid for Mason Mount, according to reports.
The Chelsea midfielder is already believed to have agreed personal terms with the Red Devils.
Mount, 24, has a year remaining on his Blues contract and has no intention of penning an extension.
Man United had a second bid for the England ace worth £45m plus a further £5m in add-ons turned down.
The Red Devils have now submitted a third offer understood to be worth up to £55m.
Chelsea are believed to be coveting £60m upfront with a further £7m in add-ons.
