Curtis Jones open to Inter Milan move, Liverpool blocking exit

Curtis Jones is reportedly open to joining Inter Milan before the winter transfer window shuts down, but Liverpool will not sanction his exit.

According to a report by Sky in Italy, Curtis Jones is the subject of interest from Inter Milan. The Serie A giants are eager to reinforce their first-team squad by signing a versatile midfielder on the final day of the winter transfer window. So, the 25-year-old Liverpool homegrown player has emerged as a target for the Nerazzurri.

Recent reports have suggested that Inter Milan and Liverpool have been in “direct club-to-club talks” over a possible loan deal with a purchase option. However, the Premier League champions have no interest in parting ways with the Englishman midway through the 2025/26 season, even though the homegrown midfielder is open to the switch.

How has Curtis Jones fared as a senior Liverpool star?

Curtis Jones has established himself as an asset for Liverpool since breaking into the first-team squad at Anfield. A native of Liverpool, the 25-year-old spent his formative years in his home city and graduated from the first-team squad at the Merseyside club. Although the homegrown player has not been an undisputed first-choice starter for Liverpool, he has been dependable in his appearances.

Additionally, the English international has been an asset due to his ability to reprise multiple roles. Jones has made over 200 appearances for Liverpool thus far while chipping in with 19 goals and 23 assists. Meanwhile, the player’s progress has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs, with Inter Milan among the prospective suitors vying for his signature.

What next?

Curtis Jones has been on Inter Milan’s radar for a long time. The continued interest makes sense, as Davide Frattesi faces an uncertain future at San Siro. Intermediaries have offered the Italian international to several high-profile clubs, and recent reports have linked him with Nottingham Forest.

Even if Frattesi remains at San Siro, Inter Milan must sign a midfielder, as Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Hakan Calhanoglu, and Piotr Zielinski are on the wrong side of 30. Several candidates have thus emerged on Inter Milan’s wishlist, with Jones also a viable target. The latest report has revealed that the 25-year-old Englishman is open to joining the Serie A heavyweights in the winter transfer window.

However, while Inter Milan recently approached Liverpool to discuss a loan move, the Premier League champions have no interest in parting ways with Jones midway through the 2025/26 season. So, Inter Milan must look elsewhere for a midfielder, as the English international will not leave Liverpool in the winter transfer window.
