Serie A club Inter Milan has successfully completed the transfer of Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones, a pursuit they have maintained for several months.

In an interview with Inter TV, Jones shared his thoughts on the transfer and the motivations that led him to join the Italian side.

At this point in my career, however, I wanted to take a step further: I think this is the perfect club to do that,” he stated.
Reflecting on his previous encounters with Inter, particularly during the Champions League, Jones noted that the experience played a significant role in his decision. “I think the feelings I felt last year when I faced the Nerazzurri in the Champions League were crucial, because of the passion Inter fans have for the team. Of course, we can also talk about the trophies, the club’s history, and the great players who have worn this shirt,” he explained.
Jones highlighted the excitement of Inter fans as a key factor in his choice, conveying how their enthusiasm resonated with him. “The fans’ passion, however, was decisive: I was on the pitch at San Siro and I could clearly hear how much they were singing and cheering the players. I come from Liverpool and I’ve always been used to feeling the love and support of the fans; I’ve always felt this strong connection. I hope I can create a special bond with Inter fans too,” he said.
