Curtis Jones transfer talks intensify as Liverpool, Inter and Nottingham Forest negotiate

Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones, 25, has one year left on his contract and is the subject of intense transfer negotiations. The club values him at £30‑34 million and has rejected Inter Milan’s previous offers of £21 million and a pending third bid of around £25 million. Inter have labelled Jones a priority midfield target and claim he is open to moving to San Siro. Meanwhile, Nottingham Forest have emerged as the leading candidate, with reports that Liverpool and the Midlands club have reached an agreement for the midfielder, a deal that would give Forest a replacement for Elliot Anderson. Liverpool maintain they will not sell for less than £30 million, but are prepared to let the player leave rather than lose him for free when his contract expires. Jones has expressed that regular playing time is crucial for his development, and his statements suggest he favours the prospect of more minutes in Italy. The transfer saga therefore hinges on whether Inter’s next offer meets Liverpool’s valuation or if Forest’s deal proceeds, shaping the midfield options for all three clubs.
