When it’s put to him whether Ben Chilwell is the biggest joker at Chelsea, Mount replied: ‘Yes he is up there. He recently joined. Jorginho definitely, he is always playing pranks.
‘We warm our boots up in like a microwave, like a boot microwave. And because he wears studs, obviously they are metal, so they get so hot.
‘So he will always just walk around with them in his hand and just tap it on your skin. He will get you in the back of the leg or something.’
