England international Mount has one year left on his existing contract at Stamford Bridge and is understood to be keen on a move to Erik ten Hag’s side.
Terryanews understands United are actively looking at alternative targets and it was suggested they would not increase their £55m offer after their third bid went in.
It was also understood United were open to negotiating if they received a positive response from Chelsea.
United must now decide if that response is positive enough to bring them back to the table or walk away and pursue alternative targets.
