Jones in the Nerazzurri's sights, the time factor favors Inter

The Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones is the main target for Cristian Chivu to strengthen the midfield. The English player’s contract expires in June 2027 and negotiations between the two clubs have not yet entered a decisive phase.

Chivu particularly appreciates Jones‘s profile for the qualities that are currently missing in the squad. The Reds are asking for 40 million euros, an amount that Inter does not intend to spend, according to Corriere dello Sport. Time is working in favor of the Nerazzurri: as the contract expiration approaches, the midfielder’s valuation is expected to gradually decrease.

However, the club from Viale della Liberazione must first resolve the issue of surplus players in midfield. Three players are on the market: Frattesi, Asllani, and Massolin. For the former Sassuolo player, a decisive meeting is expected in the coming days between the directors and agent Riso, who is also handling the renewal of Carlos Augusto.
