Italian giants Inter Milan are eyeing a move for Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones, with reports suggesting the 25-year-old could cost around €30 million.
Jones has been linked with a departure from Liverpool at the end of the season, with the Italian champions keen to secure his signature.
The midfielder struggled to nail down a regular starting spot at Liverpool during the past season, leaving his future at the club in serious doubt.
Liverpool’s situation has been further complicated by a managerial change, with Arne Slot having been sacked by the club in recent weeks.
It remains to be seen whether the incoming manager will hand Jones a more prominent role, which could prove decisive in determining whether he stays or leaves.
Jones currently has one year remaining on his Liverpool contract, meaning the club faces a genuine risk of losing him for nothing next summer.
Liverpool will be eager to avoid that scenario, and convincing the midfielder to sign a new deal would effectively shut down Inter Milan’s pursuit.
Inter Milan are believed to have the financial resources necessary to meet Liverpool’s reported asking price and complete the transfer.
The technically gifted midfielder is capable of operating in multiple positions, making his versatility a particularly attractive quality for any potential suitor.
Jones has been a useful and dependable figure for Liverpool over the years, and selling him could expose a worrying lack of depth in the middle of the park.
Liverpool are reportedly already stretched thin in midfield, which makes the prospect of keeping Jones at the club a matter of considerable priority.
If Jones opts against extending his deal and no agreement is reached, Liverpool would be wise to cash in rather than lose him on a free transfer.
Whatever the outcome, the arrival of a new manager at Anfield will play a central role in shaping Jones’s future at the club this summer.
