The 24-year-old rejected an offer because, in his opinion, it was below what other veteran players and new recruits at Stanford Bridge were being paid, and negotiations with Mount were suspended as a result.
Mount, who has 18 months left on his current contract, wants to triple his ยฃ80,000 weekly salary, but the club is willing to pay much less than they do for high-priced newcomers like Raheem Sterling.
Academy graduates like Mount are want to be recognized as an integral part of the future and not taken for granted after clubs spent more than ยฃ300 million on players in January alone.

But Mount faces an absurd amount of opposition for his position at the Bridge.
With Christopher Nkunku also anticipated to arrive in the summer, Raheem Sterling, Mykhailo Mudryk, Christian Pulisic, Hakim Ziyech, Joao Felix, Kai Havertz, and Mason Mount are all vying for three slots .
This puts Mount in a tough situation, and given that Chelsea has paid or will spend a lot of money for several of those stars, they will probably get more playing time in the upcoming months.
