The closest challengers undoubtedly are Liverpool, who were previously 7/4 favourites before moving out to 2/1.
Staying at Chelsea splits the pair and is 7/4 to happen.
Manchester United come next at 13/2 and are the final side at single figure odds.
Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City are locked together at 16/1, comfortably ahead of inter Milan at 50/1.
Mount, 24, has just over a year remaining on his contract which expires in June 2024.

But discussions over a fresh deal have hit the rocks with the situation considered to be at stalemate between Mount's representatives and club officials.
Reports suggest that Chelsea owner Todd Boehly prefers more incentive-based contracts over a longer period rather than the usual wage increase.
Speaking on The Athletic's podcast, Simon Johnson said: "I'd be very concerned if I was a Chelsea fan that Mason Mount won’t be a Chelsea player next season.
"The length of contract is a big issue, the owners want players on six, seven, eight year deals, Mount does not want to stay that long."
If there is no breakthrough, Chelsea are likely to listen to offers this summer rather than risk losing Mount on a free transfer.
