Curtis Jones has emerged as a surprise transfer target for both Arsenal and Tottenham, with the Liverpool midfielder attracting serious interest from across the Premier League.
The 25-year-old has been the subject of growing speculation in recent weeks, with Liverpool said to be open to selling him for the right price.
Reports indicate that Liverpool would require a fee in the region of £35 million before allowing Jones to leave the club this summer.
Inter Milan had previously been hoping to secure his signature, seeing the midfielder as an ideal addition to their squad in Italy.
However, the Italian champions have been unable to meet Liverpool’s asking price, which has opened the door for Premier League rivals to make their move.
Lewis Steele has now claimed that both Arsenal and Tottenham have had Jones on their radar, adding a significant new dimension to the transfer story.
Aston Villa have also been credited with interest in the midfielder, meaning Jones has no shortage of potential suitors ahead of the summer window.
Jones is considered a reliable and technically gifted Premier League operator, capable of providing creativity, drive and control in the middle of the park for any top-flight side.
Both Arsenal and Tottenham have their own needs in central midfield, and a player of Jones’s profile could prove a smart and cost-effective addition for either club.
His contract with Liverpool is due to expire in the summer of 2027, which means this transfer window could represent the club’s final realistic chance to recoup a significant fee for the player.
Having largely been used as a squad player at Anfield, Jones will be keen to secure regular first-team football at this stage of his career, with the move potentially suiting all parties.
Liverpool may also wish to reconsider their position, however, given that the club already has limited depth in central midfield and selling Jones to a direct rival would be a controversial decision.
It remains to be seen whether Arsenal or Tottenham will move to formalise their interest with a concrete offer for the Liverpool academy product in the coming weeks.
