Report Liverpool midfielder draws European interest, Inter Milan bids
Report Liverpool notes that 25‑year‑old Curtis Jones is edging closer to a summer exit as European interest intensifies. Inter Milan have prepared a second approach after Liverpool turned down an opening offer of £21.6 million, while the Merseyside club values him at £30 million.
Inter Milan are working on a revised proposal, according to talkSPORT, and the Serie A club remain keen on the Liverpool midfielder. The Italian side, described as a Serie A outfit, have already shown admiration for Jones since a failed attempt in January, and the photo credit reads IMAGO.
Liverpool’s stance appears straightforward: they will keep Jones if their £30 million valuation is not met, but they would allow him to leave on a free when his contract expires after this season. The player has one year remaining on his deal, and the club has publicly stated there are no concerns about his attitude or professionalism.

Jones’ playing time last season was limited; he made 16 substitute appearances, scored one goal and provided two assists in 34 Premier League games, and started only four Champions League matches. Competition in midfield from Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai narrowed his opportunities. Former Liverpool winger Jermaine Pennant told Inside Liverpool that continuity is needed for confidence, adding that frequent changes make it hard for a player to settle. He also noted that Slot is still playing Jones ahead of others and said, “I would like to see him there next season because he can do a job all over the pitch.”Liverpool boss Andoni Iraola outlines urgent summer recruitment to replace Salah
Our View reflects disappointment, noting that Jones is a home‑grown talent who understands Anfield and the city. That there is potential for a lifelong Liverpool career may depend on Inter meeting the £30 million mark, and Andoni Iraola could still unlock more if the player stays. If Inter can make a substantial jump from their first offer, Liverpool may engage meaningfully; otherwise the valuation gap remains the main obstacle. There is still a route back for Jones, but the next steps hinge on whether the Italian club submits a revised bid that satisfies Liverpool’s expectations. The report ends with a note on Jones.”
