Why Mason Mount missed out on Golden Boy shortlist

Chelsea have some of the brightest young talents in football – or so we thought.

For all those big names in the loan army, not one was considered good enough for this final 40 man shortlist of players under 21.

It’s hard to imagine Mason Mount not being in the top 20, but then again when you consider he plays in the Championship, while some names on there (ahem, Kylian Mbappe, ahem) have won the World Cup – it makes a lot more sense.
