Mason Mount says winning the Premier League is the ‘big one’ for Chelsea

Mason Mount has targeted winning the Premier League after conquering Europe with Chelsea.

Speaking to Sky Sports ahead of the meeting with Manchester United on Sunday afternoon, the England international talked of the goals and targets the players set themselves following their victory in May’s Champions League final over Manchester City.

With Thomas Tuchel’s side sitting top of the table as things stand, Chelsea certainly seem well-placed to achieve that aim, although Mount stressed that there is still a lot more work to do.

“That’s the goal,” he said.

“We’re working towards that. Obviously, we’ve won the Champions League and now the big focus is the Premier League.

“That’s our big goal, that’s our big focus.

“We obviously want to keep doing well in the Champions League and other competitions but the Premier League is the big one, I think.”

Back in the side after undergoing dental surgery, Mount is expected to start as Michael Carrick brings his United side to Stamford Bridge.
