Curtis Jones Set to Join Inter Milan as Liverpool Faces Squad Changes
Liverpool still have a lot of changes to make to their first-team squad before the transfer window slams shut.
Their first Premier League game is now less than a week away and, at the moment, it’s unclear whether the current crop of players that Andoni Iraola has at his disposal are better than last season’s.

Of course, some deals still need to be struck, and with the sheer number of players being linked with a Liverpool move, there’s bound to be another one or two joining up with them.
However, since the Reds have run out of non-homegrown places in their Premier League squad, it’s clear that some players must be moved on if Liverpool want to improve their team.
Many different players have been linked with Anfield exits, and now, one seems to have already reached an agreement for a move away.
Curtis Jones Agrees to Move to Inter Milan
One of the main players linked with a Liverpool exit this summer is Curtis Jones.

The Englishman only has a year left on his current deal and, since Arne Slot barely trusted him, he sought a move elsewhere.
Over the last couple of transfer windows, Inter have made several attempts to bring the Englishman to their squad.
Now, it appears that they may finally succeed, especially with Davide Frattesi’s move to Lazio.
“Agreement in principle between Curtis Jones and Inter for a contract until 2031,” Nico Schira shared via X.
“Inter are now ready to submit a new bid to LFC to try to sign the midfielder.”

Liverpool Needs to Replace Curtis Jones This Summer
Although Jones was one of Liverpool’s better performers last season, his contributions were often overlooked by Slot, who seldom placed his trust in him.
When he was given a chance, he often played out of position.
This situation led the Englishman to lose faith in his boyhood club and seek a new opportunity.

Most fans opposed this decision, especially when Iraola was announced as their new manager, believing he could offer more options in midfield.
This outcome now places Liverpool in a position where, along with all the other players they need to sign, they must also find a suitable replacement for their central midfielder.
Many have been linked such as Lamine Camara and Adam Wharton, but with limited time left in the transfer window, a prompt decision is necessary.
Here’s hoping that the Reds can expedite a deal for Jones’ successor soon.

Liverpool will have to find a replacement for Curtis Jones this summer
Although Jones was one of Liverpool’s better performers last season, for one reason or another, Slot barely trusted him.
And, even when he did, he was often used out of position.
This obviously led to the Englishman losing trust in his boyhood club and wanting to try and find somewhere else to call home.

Most fans were against this, especially when Iraola was announced as their new manager as they thought that he could be regularly used to make a difference and offer some more options in the centre of the park.
Evidently, that isn’t going to happen and now, alongside all the other players that the Reds need to sign, they’ll now need to find a new central midfielder.
Many have been linked such as Lamine Camara and Adam Wharton and, while no concrete moves have been made yet, with how little of the transfer window there is left to go, a decision clearly needs to be made as soon as possible.
Here’s hoping that the Reds get themselves into gear and sort a deal out for Jones’ successor soon.
