Mason Mount is set to become the latest player to dump Chelsea for a move to Manchester United.

The English midfielder is understood to be on the verge of sealing a sensational summer move to Old Trafford after having his medicals at the weekend.

Sky Sports reports that United have agreed on a £60m deal with Chelsea for Mount, with the 24-year-old set to sign a five-year contract at Old Trafford.

The Chelsea academy graduate, who spent 18 years at the club, has already been spotted with a Man United shirt ahead of his transfer.

The England international has equally confirmed his Stamford Bridge exit, posting an emotional video on Instagram announcing he will be departing this summer.

While he did not discuss his move to Man United, it is all but written in the stars that he will be turning out for the Red Devils next season.

Incredibly, United and Chelsea have not transacted as much in the past, with only three players swapping the Blues for the Manchester club in recent years.

Sports Brief takes a look at six players who have played for both Chelsea and Man United:

6. Ray Wilkins (1979)

The England legend was the first Chelsea player to swap the club for rivals Manchester United.

Wilkins had established himself as a fast-rising player with the Blues, having become the youngest-ever captain for the club aged just 18 years, per beIN Sports.

However, 'Butch', as the legendary midfielder was fondly known, would later dump the West Londoners for a move to United after Chelsea were relegated.

He went on to win the FA Cup in his fourth season with the Red Devils.

5. Juan Mata (2014)

The Spaniard famously quit Chelsea for Man United during the 2014 summer transfer window.

Mata's decision to leave Stamford Bridge came after he saw his involvement in the first team drastically cut under Jose Mourinho, who had returned from Real Madrid.

The midfielder initially signed for David Moyes at United but went on to play under Mourinho once again when the Portuguese was appointed Red Devils boss in 2015.

4. Nemanja Matic

The Serbian midfielder had the rare privilege of playing for both Chelsea and Man United during his Premier League spell.

Matic moved to Old Trafford in 2017 for a fee of about £40 million.

His move came after Jose Mourinho reportedly urged United to reunite him with the midfielder at the Theatre of Dreams.

3. Radamel Falcao

The Colombian striker has played for both Manchester United and Chelsea during his career.

Falcao joined United on loan from AS Monaco in 2014 but was unable to make an impact due to a devastating injury he had suffered prior to the move.

He would later move to Stamford Bridge on loan, where he was limited to just 10 Premier League appearances.

2. Mark Hughes

Sir Alex Ferguson brought Mark Hughes back to England in 1988 after stints with Barcelona and Bayern Munich.

However, he was shipped to Chelsea eight years later as Fergie undertook a somewhat squad overhaul.

1. Romelu Lukaku

And finally, on this list is Romelu Lukaku.

The Belgian striker initially left Chelsea for Everton before Man United came calling in the summer of 2017.

He would later join Inter Milan before he sealed a sensational reunion with Chelsea.
