Liverpool Star Sets Sights on Inter Milan as Reds Stand Firm
Curtis Jones on the verge of an Inter Milan loan; Liverpool asks for renewal.

Transfer Talks

Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones has reportedly agreed to move to Inter Milan during this winter transfer window.

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano said on his YouTube channel that Jones has indeed said yes to a loan move to Inter, but the deal hinges on the player's decision to renew his contract with Liverpool, which runs until 2027.

Liverpool's Stance and Inter's Reach

Romano added that Liverpool will not let a young player depart on loan unless he first signs a new contract and understands that Inter is the key to the deal.

Romano also noted that Liverpool has not yet allowed Jones to depart due to the team's injury struggles.

Jones has appeared 29 times for Liverpool this season across all competitions, but has yet to score, with one assist.

Punchline 1: Curtis Jones to Inter? Timing is everything in football—even the weather knows when to drizzle a rumor.

Punchline 2: If this move collapses, Liverpool will blame the calendar; January is the only transfer window that shows up late to the party.
