Chelsea’s Mason Mount is “feeling good” after undergoing surgery on a pelvic issue that threatens to sideline him for the remainder of the season.
Mount has endured a frustrating few months, with six of his last seven appearances coming from the bench – including all three of his outings since Frank Lampard returned to Stamford Bridge as caretaker manager.
The England international has made 20 Premier League starts this term but only managed three goals and two assists during a season of upheaval for Chelsea.
On Tuesday, Lampard said Mount could face four weeks on the sidelines after being troubled by a pelvic issue, which required him to undergo minor surgery.
Mount’s Chelsea contract expires in 2024, and with fresh terms yet to be agreed, the 24-year-old has been touted as a potential transfer target for Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United.
With Chelsea concluding their Premier League campaign against Newcastle United on May 28, Mount’s injury setback has led to suggestions he may have played his final game for the club.
The midfielder, however, hopes to return in the coming weeks, writing on Instagram: “Had a minor procedure yesterday to sort out a discomfort I had for a while.
“Everything went well and I’m feeling good. Time to rest but can’t wait to get back to training in the coming weeks!
“Thanks for all your messages of support and a massive thank you to the medical team, doctors and nurses for looking after me.”
