Chelsea youngster Mason Mount has drawn praise from none other than Barcelona's Lionel Messi, with the Argentinian ace predicting a big future for the England international. Mount, who spent the 2018-19 campaign on loan at Derby under current Chelsea manager Frank Lampard, has made a major impact in his first full season at Stamford Bridge. Having represented his country at all junior age groups, the 21-year-old made his senior debut as a substitute in the Three Lions' 4-0 European Championships qualifying win over Bulgaria in September. The Barcelona captain, who has spent his entire career playing alongside top midfielders including Andres Iniesta and Xavi Hernandez, included Mount in his 'Youth on the Rise' list in partnership with Topps KICK trading cards. Messi said:
"Having watched him play he has the potential to be one of the best."
England are 5/1 with bet365 to win Euro 2021.
