Former Chelsea fullback Glen Johnson is backing a Bayern Munich move for Mason Mount.
The midfielder is being linked with Bayern, where he would be reunited with former Blues manager Thomas Tuchel.
“I actually think he would be brilliant at Bayern,” he said in an interview with DAZN Bet. “You could understand why Tuchel wants him because he got him playing his best football for sure. Everything that went well at Chelsea whilst Tuchel was there, Mason Mount was right at the heart of it. He hasn’t had that same impact since, so you could understand why they would want to do business together again and link back up.
“I think he is more than good enough to play at that level; I really like him. At the moment, Chelsea should take £70m because he hasn’t been the same Mason Mount and Chelsea may need to take the money after all their signings. It also depends on who the next manager is, because [Mount] may be able to bounce back if there is a top manager like Tuchel, who wants to bring in other top players to play alongside him.
“On the other hand, you could totally understand why interest from a club like Bayern and a manager like Tuchel would make his head turn: [under Tuchel] was when he was playing his best.”
