FOOTBALL Harambee Stars coach Engin Firat promises fans thrilling clash against Mauritius
Stars managed a slim 1-0 win over minnows Pakistan on Wednesday.
Since he broke through in the 2019/20 season, Mount has become one of the most promising playmakers in the Premier League. He did not have an impressive outing in the season that concluded, but he remains one of the players linked to several clubs.
In 35 games, Mount had three goals and six assists, although the Blues generally struggled and missed a ticket to European football.
He now faces an uncertain future after falling down the pecking order at Stamford Bridge. Despite that, United want to sign him and are preparing to approach Chelsea for more talks.

STARS ABROAD Fresh reports link Michael Olunga with a move to Greek heavyweights
The former Gor Mahia forward is coming off an impeccable season where he won the Qatar Stars League Golden Boot.
Although United are heading to the next round of talks, it is not clear whether Chelsea will accept a £50 million bid for the 24-year-old.
Should the two clubs fail to agree on a valuation for Mount, then a summer deal might not be possible. If that happens, then United can wait until the summer of 2024 and then sign the England international for free.
