Inter Hold Active Talks to Sign Curtis Jones from Liverpool
Reported negotiations push Liverpool to decide whether to extend a homegrown midfielder or sell him before he enters the final year of his contract.
Overview
- Journalist Fabrizio Romano reported on Sunday that Liverpool are in active talks with Inter Milan over a permanent move for Curtis Jones and that the player is believed to be receptive to leaving.
- Inter are reported to value the deal at roughly €20 million, a figure framed by outlets as a reported estimate rather than a confirmed offer.
- Jones has one year remaining on his contract, which places pressure on Liverpool to either secure a new deal or accept a summer sale to avoid losing him on a free transfer next year.
- The 25-year-old produced three goals and three assists in 49 appearances this season and is praised for his technical control and pressing, but his performances have been inconsistent.
- Liverpool face a broader summer rebuild that includes confirmed senior departures and the recent dismissal of Arne Slot, which complicates choices about transfers, squad balance and the club’s commitment to academy graduates.
