Mason Mount: Early Career & Life
Mason was born into a typically robust and strong-willed family that lived in the port city of England, Portsmouth.
Likewise, Mount’s father was a semi-professional footballer who was a coach as well. As a result, the young Brit loved football from very early on in his life.
Growing up, Mount had an insatiable thirst for football despite the family asking him to focus more on education. Surprisingly, the English player managed to do well in school as well as football.
Nonetheless, everyone was aware of the Brit’s passion for football as Mason practiced regularly, be it morning or evening. Consequently, in no time, the Portsmouth native played for a local academy, Boarhunt, and impressed many onlookers.
Call it fate or call it a chance, the opportunity came knocking, when one such onlooker was none other than a Chelsea scout. Subsequently, Mount signed for the Chelsea Football Club youth team at the age of six in 2005.

The following year Mount joined Championship club Derby County on another season-long loan. It didn’t come as a surprise when the young midfielder scored his debut goal in the 60th minute.
