An internal storm is brewing at Manchester United after Mason Mount made a surprising statement that is considered “unprecedented” in the club’s history. According to leaked sources from the Old Trafford dressing room, Mount publicly criticized a teammate right after a closed-door training session, with words described as “vicious and irredeemable”.
His statement quickly went viral on social media after a recording was revealed:
“I would rather sit on the bench for a whole year than play one more minute with him. Every time I see him on the pitch, I feel like I’m betraying my career and my own honor.”
This statement immediately caused an internal explosion within the Red Devils. Although Mount did not name the person mentioned, reporters and fans quickly speculated on a series of names, from a controversial midfielder to an attacker who was recently accused of “lacking team spirit”.
According to The Football Journal, tensions broke out in the dressing room immediately after the match last weekend. An eyewitness described: “Mount was shouting, throwing his training shirt on the ground. The atmosphere was extremely heavy. Some players even left early to avoid trouble.”
In the face of the growing crisis, coach Ruben Amorim was forced to directly intervene. In an emergency meeting the next morning, he asked the entire team to keep quiet in front of the press, and announced a “surprise decision” that stunned the public: one of two players – Mount or the person believed to be the subject of the conflict – would be temporarily removed from the first team until everything was resolved.
In a brief statement to the media, Amorim said:
“I don’t manage individuals – I manage the team. Anyone who puts their ego above this shirt will pay the price.”
British newspapers called it “the most serious dressing room crisis since Ten Hag”. Fans are divided into two camps – one side supports Mount for “speaking the truth”, while the other believes he has “crossed the line and damaged the image of the club”.
A former Man United player commented on radio:
“At Old Trafford, things like this never end well. One of them will have to go – soon.”
Last night, Mount appeared to leave the training ground with a cold face, refusing all questions from the press. On social media, he only left a short line: “Respect is not something everyone understands.”
Meanwhile, the Man United leadership has remained absolutely silent, making the rumors spread faster than ever.
One thing is certain: the storm at Old Trafford has never been so fierce.
And if not quelled soon, this incident could be the beginning of one of the biggest divisions in the history of the Red Devils.
