Mason Mount, a midfielder for Manchester United, has endured a challenging year filled with setbacks and obstacles.

It’s important to recognize that Mason Mount’s struggles didn’t begin at Old Trafford during his difficult debut against Manchester United. Prior to joining the club, Mount had already faced adversity. He missed the final months of the previous season with Chelsea due to injury, and his performances during that time were not particularly successful. When Manchester United signed Mount for £55 million, it was likely based on his potential and previous achievements rather than his form in the 2022-2023 season.

Mount had hoped that his move to Manchester United would provide a fresh start, but unfortunately, it has mirrored the difficulties he faced at Chelsea. His body has been plagued by injuries, leading to two distinct injury spells. Even when he has been fit, he has either found himself on the bench or struggled to integrate effectively into the Manchester United squad.

Mount has been sidelined since November, and the club’s updates on his injuries have been vague and lacking in specific details regarding his return timeline.

Two notable responses to Mount’s message came from his Manchester United and England teammates. Bruno Fernandes, the United captain, responded, “Almost there,” indicating that Mount’s return is imminent. Declan Rice, a fellow England teammate and former Chelsea academy friend, commented, “What a sight,” expressing his excitement at the prospect of Mount’s return. Based on the current information, it is unlikely that we will see Mount back on the pitch before the international break in late March. It may be a few more weeks before he is ready to play. However, there is a possibility that he could target the Premier League match against Liverpool in early April for his comeback. Mount will undoubtedly strive to make his return in that game, aiming to contribute to his team’s success.
