Mason Mount has been spotted with a mystery blonde woman, who accompanied him on Wednesday to find his Land Rover Defender in the process of being slapped with a parking ticket. 

The Manchester United midfielder has endured a frustrating debut season at Old Trafford following a £60million summer move from Chelsea.  

Mount has missed a large portion of the campaign with a calf injury and has featured only 12 times for Erik ten Hag's side in the Premier League. 

Ahead of United's clash against Sheffield United on Wednesday night, Mount was spotted out and about in Altrincham town centre with an unknown woman by his side. 

The pair looked in good spirits as they walked back to his £120,000 Range Rover, only to find a traffic warden slapping a parking ticket on his vehicle. 

There did not appear to be too much protestation from the England midfielder as he and his passenger departed. 

In 2022, Mount confirmed his split from his model girlfriend Chloe Wealleans-Watts after five years together. He stated that 'football is his priority' ahead of The Three Lions' 2022 World Cup preparations.

Speaking to Tatler he added that he has been going on dates 'sometimes' since his break up but only 'when he comes up to London'.

She and Mason were believed to have met in 2017 and started dating shortly afterwards, having taken many extravagant trips together. 

Mount will be hoping for better luck against the Blades, should be be deemed fit enough to feature, following his absence from Sunday's dramatic FA up semi-final win against Coventry. 

The Wembley tie was the 28th game he has missed in total this term. Mount has played less than one half of football in five appearances since returning from injury in the 4-3 FA Cup quarter-final win against Liverpool on March 17.

That includes 32 minutes in the Premier League, including his cameo and only goal this season in the 1-1 draw against Brentford. 

Earlier this month, Ten Hag dismissed the suggestion that Chelsea's desire to offload Mount last summer motivated his move to Old Trafford, rather than a willingness from the midfielder. 

His Stamford Bridge exit came after a prolonged contract stand-off with Chelsea, with Mount sold when there was just a year left to run on his deal after the two parties were unable to reach an agreement.

ESPN claimed that given the 25-year-old counted as an academy product, coupled with the need for the club to raise money after a significant transfer outlay last season, Mount's departure was viewed as the perfect solution to generate much-needed cash.

'I don't think Chelsea wanted to sell him,' Ten Hag said ahead of his side's 4-3 defeat by the Blues. 'They wanted to keep him and offered him a new contract many times. But he wanted to make this step.

'He's a fantastic football player. It's important first that he's getting and keeping fit.'
