Szoboszlai Says On‑Pitch Exchange With Curtis Jones Has Been Cleared Up

His comments aim to calm a viral reaction as Liverpool continues to sort its vacant vice‑captain role and Jones's contract status

Overview

  • Cameras captured a frank exchange between Dominik Szoboszlai, Curtis Jones and Kostas Tsimikas after Liverpool's pre‑season 1-0 win over Wrexham in New York, and clips of the moment circulated widely on social media.
  • Szoboszlai told reporters the matter is resolved, asked that future frank talks happen in the changing room, and said the incident had been blown out of proportion.
  • Liverpool insiders have downplayed the episode as part of intense elite‑level competition, and players have since been pictured joking together at training.
  • The club's vacant vice‑captain spot, left after Andy Robertson's exit, remains open and Szoboszlai said he would welcome the role but that no formal talks have taken place.
  • Curtis Jones's future continues to shape the background to the story because he has under a year left on his contract and reported offers from Inter Milan have been refused, a situation that could influence transfer and selection decisions this summer.
