Derby County midfielder Mason Mount has played regularly for Frank Lampard’s side this season.
Mount has signed on loan for Derby this season, largely thanks to Frank Lampard’s connections at Chelsea.
The youngster is already an established part of Derby’s starting line-up.
And Redknapp believes that Mount certainly has a future at international level, as he has the ability to dictate games for England.
Redknapp said: “We have a deficiency in this country, with the likes of Luka Modric or Isco, who can control a game. We just don’t have those player. But are they coming through? I think they are.
“I look at Mason Mount already at Derby. I know he’s still a young player and I don’t want to put the pressure on him, but he’s a player. He controls the ball, he can score goals, he can link the play. It’s almost a foreign style of playing.”
Mount caught the eye in Holland last season, and he is showing that his form can also be transferred to the English game at Derby.
Mount has scored four goals in his first eight appearances for the Rams, and also has an assist to his name.
Lampard already appears to have great faith in the youngster, and he looks likely to have a key role to play for Derby all season.
Derby return to action after the international break with a match against Rotherham United at the weekend.
