A number of billionaire bidders are now scrapping it to take control of the club – and putting the Premier League giants on shaky ground.

Mount, 23, admits he and his Chelsea Teammates are as unclear as anyone about what the future holds.

Speaking of his service in England, he said: “I’ve been at the club since I was six and nothing like this has ever happened so it can be an issue.

“In the beginning and even now we don’t really know where it’s going and what’s going to happen the next day. So it’s difficult.

“But we are focused on our football and what we can do is try to win as many games as possible.

“Obviously I’m away with England so that stuff is kind of parked and I’m focused on serving in England and what I can do while I’m away.

“And when I return to Chelsea next week I’m sure we’ll be told what’s going on because I haven’t heard anything lately.”

His comments come as preferred Chelsea suitors prepare for talks with manager Thomas Tuchel and Marina Granovskaia ahead of a £2.5billion takeover.
