Transfer deal for Liverpool midfielder will be too good to turn down

Transfer deal for Liverpool midfielder will be too good to turn down

There are big changes coming to Liverpool this summer.

Experienced leaders like Andy Robertson and Mohamed Salah are leaving the club. And there is plenty of uncertainty over the fate of certain midfielders too.

Alexis Mac Allister for example is not in contract talks but his current deal expires in 2028. If no new agreement is reached then it is possible that the Argentina FIFA World Cup winner will depart.

And what about Curtis Jones?

The 25-year-old has got into the team in recent weeks - albeit at right-back - and has been unable to nail down a berth in his preferred midfield position.

With his deal expiring in 2027 Richard Hughes is reaching the last chance saloon over a renewal.

And if the Premier League champions don’t have plans to tie down the Scouser for an extended deal then this summer will represent their last chance to bank a decent fee.

Game over for Curtis Jones

Even more alluring is the England international’s status as a homegrown academy product - meaning any fee brought in will go down as pure profit.

Fans would not like to see Jones leave - being the only local lad in the team - but needs must. He is not all of a sudden going to become a valued first-team midfielder under Slot and would be forgiven for seeking out new opportunities.
