'It didn't work out' - Mason Mount labelled Premier League's biggest 'disappointment' following another horror season with Man Utd

Mount joined Manchester United in the summer of 2023, having made a high-profile switch from Chelsea. His arrival was seen as a major coup, but his time at the club has been marred by repeated injuries, resulting in limited opportunities to make an impression.

Mount's latest injury setback came just before the festive period, casting a shadow over what many hoped would be a comeback season. While United’s new manager Ruben Amorim initially downplayed the severity of the issue, the midfielder ended up spending nearly three months on the sidelines. He only made his return to the pitch in April.

Speaking candidly about Mount’s struggles in an interview with Mega Dice, Saha was asked which team and player had disappointed him most: "The team that I watch the most is Man United. So for me, it's going to be Mason Mount, because he has been injured all year. You know, I’m sure he is working hard, but it's difficult. There were a lot of hopes and it didn't work out for him."

Since returning, Mount has made four appearances in the Premier League and featured in both legs of the Europa League quarter-finals against Lyon. However, He has not started a match since suffering that pre-Christmas injury.

United’s next Premier League fixture is against Bournemouth on Sunday. Whether Mount starts in that match remains to be seen, but the midfielder will be desperate to contribute before the end of what has been a turbulent season at the club.
