Inter has intensified its interest in Curtis Jones. The club has informed Liverpool that it is ready to invest up to 35 million euros for the English midfielder, despite the player’s contract expiring in a year.
According to Libero, Jones represents for the Nerazzurri management that added value capable of raising the level not only of the midfield but of the entire squad. The declared financial availability for a player twelve months from the contract’s expiration, with no intention of waiting for a possible renewal negotiation between the player and the English club, confirms a transfer strategy based on targeted investments.
“He is considered by the Nerazzurri club as that ‘something extra’ that would allow not only the midfield but the whole team to make a qualitative leap. And the fact that Inter values him at 35 million despite his contract expiring in a year and has no intention of sitting down to discuss it with Liverpool shows that the Nerazzurri’s transfer market is based on targeted investment,” reads the newspaper.
The path is clear: if the opportunity has the right characteristics, as was the case with Palestra in the past or with Jones now, the investment goes ahead. Alternatively, the club focuses on more economically accessible operations, such as the one for Stones could be.
