# Vitesse Arnhem want to keep Mason Mount next season

Chelsea youngster Mason Mount is being coveted for another season on loan by Vitesse Arnhem, as per [Dutch outlets](https://www.vi.nl/nieuws/vitesse-wil-mount-jaar-langer-huren-van-chelsea).

The 19-year-old has been playing excellent football in the Eredivisie, appearing 17 times for his club, and scoring seven goals.

As you might expect, Vitesse manager Henk Fraser doesn’t want to see the back of the phenom just yet.

Mount himself spoke in glowing terms about his loan spell, saying:

> I’m having a good time here. What happens next season? I have no idea. I want to occupy myself with the here and now. You never know what will happen in football.

In Chelsea’s vast network of loaned talent, Mount may not seem as more than a drop in the ocean at first glance – but given his performance in a top European league, Chelsea may yet decide to call him home with a view to including him in their first team plans.

With midfielders such as Danny Drinkwater and Tiemoue Bakayoko disappointing at times this season, there could be a role amongst the senior team for the youthful Mount.
