Romano: Liverpool Instantly Reject Transfer Offer For 'Incredible' Star
Liverpool are believed to have instantly rejected an offer from Inter Milan for Curtis Jones amid links with a potential deal for the midfielder.
Liverpool have turned down an offer from Inter Milan for Curtis Jones, according to Fabrizio Romano, as talks continue over a possible deal for the midfielder.
It comes as the 25-year-old enters the final year under contract at Anfield, with uncertainty persisting over the possibility of a stay at the club.
Andoni Iraola's arrival means a new look at how Liverpool will play, with an emphasis placed on energy and intensity with his pressing philosophy.
The forward ranks remain the most important to crank up the tempo for the Merseyside outfit, but the midfield could follow shortly after, as links persist over a deal for Alex Scott.
That also means some outgoings, with Jones among those who could be sacrificed to help raise some funds.
As rumours continue over Jones and a possible deal to join Inter Milan, Fabrizio Romano reports that a first offer has been turned down by Liverpool.
He claims that a €25 million (£21.7 million) package was proposed by the Serie A club, but it was instantly rejected by the Reds, with the Nerazzuri needing to consider their position again.
Romano adds that Liverpool value Jones higher than the offer that was made, and unless Inter propose another bid with more money on the table, then a move won't progress.
It means, as things stand, there is still a waiting game for the Anfield outfit to play, with an exit seemingly on the cards, but not unless they get favourable terms.
While Jones is in the final year of his contract, which will impact his overall valuation, he has been described as "incredible", and Liverpool will be keen to maximise his value and recoup as much money as possible.
As it stands, it's unclear what price point Liverpool would be open to a sale for Jones, but an exit is possible due to his current contract situation.
Transfermarkt has the star worth €35 million (£30.4 million), showing the potential gap in valuation between the two sides in negotiations for his signature.
Liverpool have entered the race to land a midfielder this summer, and will be joined by some rivals in the hunt for his signature.
That could all change, of course, if a new contract is on the table for the midfielder. As it stands, there is no sense that there will be a new deal.
However, if his place in the team changes, there is always a chance of a U-turn. Liverpool appear in no rush to confirm an exit, and will hold out for a bigger fee, which could take the move in a few different directions.
