The Reds were about to sign the English playmaker instead the Hungarian in the summer 

Liverpool fans would have started to mock at Manchester United playmaker Mason Mount in the last few weeks, as he would have been about to be signed by the Reds in the summer transfer market window, where Jürgen Klopp would have identified him as the man to be sign to improve and rejuvenate the team’s midfield.

However, according to the information appearing on the site The Athletic the former Chelsea player would have snubbed the Reds to join Manchester United, as Liverpool would have been eventually priced out a transfer, which resulted with the player announcing his move to Old Trafford for €65 million.

At that moment Liverpool would have decided to choose an alternative, and the Reds completed their move for Dominik Szboszlai from RB Leipzig for €70 million, which at this moment seems to have been a wonderful decision for the Anfield’s team. In this sense, the poor performances of Mason Mount at Manchester United and the great start of the season for the Hungarian player would have caused Mount to become an object of ridicule among the Liverpool fans.

Mount has even lost his place at Manchester United

The English playmaker has completed only eight appearances for the Red Devils this season, with only one assist in the Carabao Cup, and has lost his place in favor of Scott McTominay, Sofyan Amrabat and Christian Eriksen, while Szoboszlai has played 13 games with the Reds, scoring two goals and giving two assist. In addition, according to The Athletic, the contract of Mount with United worths £200,000 per week, rising to £250,000 a week with various bonuses, while Szoboszlai earns around £120,000 a week, a detail that would have caused the mocks of Liverpool fans to Mount and Manchester United in the last few weeks.
