Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount has completed his loan to Derby County.
The club has yet to Tweet confirmation, but this picture of the youngster holding up a Rams shirt with Frank Lampard is all the evidence we need:

It’s a potentially exciting move, with young Mason now getting to work with the legendary former Chelsea midfielder in his first managerial role. The amount of learning he can do over the next 11 months will hopefully be considerable.
After tearing up the Eredivisie with Vitesse last season many were hoping that Mason would jump straight to the Premier League or even into the senior Chelsea squad, but this seems a good compromise assuming he starts regularly.
The Lampard connection means that Mount is likely not going to be the last player to move on loan to Pride Park from Stamford Bridge this summer.
Whoever is next, you’ll hear about it here first.
