Manchester United are set to make a third bid of about £55m for Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount.
The Old Trafford club will also warn they will walk away from negotiations with the Blues if the offer is not accepted.
Chelsea are thought to value the England international at £70m.
However, United feel that figure is excessive as Mount only has a year left on his contract and talks about an extension have stalled.
United have already had bids worth up to £40m and £50m for Mount rejected by Chelsea.
United boss Erik ten Hag wants Mount to become his first signing of the summer as he looks to strengthen his side following their qualification for next season’s Champions League.
Personal terms are not thought to be a problem and United are confident the player wants to make the move to Old Trafford.
Mount, who has scored 33 goals in 195 appearances for Chelsea since making his debut in 2019, missed the end of the domestic season with injury as the Blues came 12th – their lowest finish for more than 25 years.
