The 25-year-old has just over a year remaining on his current deal, and having sought him out during the winter transfer window, it looks increasingly plausible that the Nerazzurri could get their man at the second time of asking.
In his latest Substack column, Liverpool reporter David Lynch wrote: âContract talks with Curtis Jones are understood to have effectively ceased, and it is known that he was open to a January move to Inter Milan before his boyhood club shut the door.

âThe Reds would bank pure profit on the midfielder under the Premier Leagueâs new squad cost ratio rules, but replacing the sort of versatile, committed and homegrown player that can be crucial to major silverware will not be easy.
âThere is no doubt that the 25-year-oldâs desire for more minutes will be cited should he leave as expected but, unlike in the case of Trent Alexander-Arnoldâs departure, Liverpool will not be entirely blameless when it comes to this latest loss of a hugely talented academy graduate.
âUltimately, they must ask whether Jones would have been quite so eager to leave had he not been so often unfairly kept out of the side by players whose form did not merit it this season.â

With a trusted Liverpool-focused journalist in Lynch hinting at the growing possiblity of a summer exit for Jones amid the impasse over his contractual situation, it seems increasingly likely that the academy graduate could move on from his boyhood club in the near future.
Sources vary as to the amount of his weekly wage (figures as diverse as ÂŁ50,000 to ÂŁ110,000 are cited online), but either way heâs in the lower half of the pay scale among his teammates, despite now being 25 and having surpassed 200 appearances for the Reds.
Between that and a continually limited supply of Premier League starts (just 15 this season, four fewer than last term), itâd be understandable if the Toxteth native were to desire a fresh challenge elsewhere, with the chance to compete for major honours with Inter undoubtedly an attractive proposition.
Jones may feel somewhat underappreciated at Liverpool, especially when some of his underlying performance figures are among the best in the English top flight, and itâd also be a shame to lose the one remaining Scouser in the first-team squad.
With contract talks now appearing to have âceasedâ, the possibility of a summer exit for our number 17 is growing by the day. We certainly wouldnât begrudge him the opportunity to test himself elsewhere, but we just hope that if he is allowed to depart, Anfield chiefs arenât left with major regrets in future years.
