In a major development on the transfer front, Inter Milan have agreed a deal to sign midfielder Curtis Jones from Liverpool. According to exclusive reports from Fabrizio Romano, a verbal agreement is now in place between the two clubs for a package fee of €35 million, paving the way for the England international to make the move from Anfield to San Siro.
The news marks another significant piece of business for Inter as they continue to shape their squad for the campaign ahead, while Liverpool look set to cash in on one of their academy graduates.
The Agreement
Sources close to the negotiations confirm that the two clubs have shaken hands on the key terms. The €35m package represents a solid valuation for a player who has steadily grown into a reliable first-team option at Liverpool. With the verbal green light given, both parties are now expected to finalise the remaining formalities, including personal terms and the standard medical checks.
Romano’s update — complete with the trademark “Here we go” — has sent waves through the transfer community, confirming what many had been sensing: Inter were serious about adding quality and depth to their midfield.
Who Is Curtis Jones?
Curtis Jones has long been regarded as one of the brighter talents to emerge from Liverpool’s academy. A technically gifted, composed midfielder with an eye for a pass and the ability to drive forward with the ball, he has featured regularly under successive managers at Anfield.
Comfortable operating in central areas or slightly wider, Jones brings a blend of control, progressive carrying, and goal threat that has made him a useful squad member in both domestic and European competitions. His development from promising youngster to established Premier League performer has been closely watched, and this potential move to Serie A would represent a new chapter in his career.
Why Inter Want Him
Inter have been linked with midfield reinforcements as they look to maintain their competitive edge in Serie A and on the European stage. Jones fits the profile of a modern, versatile midfielder who can contribute in possession-heavy systems while offering physicality and work rate off the ball.
The Nerazzurri’s interest underlines their strategy of targeting proven Premier League talent at the right price. At 25 (as of the current window), Jones still has his best years ahead of him and could provide both immediate quality and long-term value.
What It Means for Liverpool
For Liverpool, the departure of Jones would free up space in the midfield group and generate a useful transfer fee that can be reinvested. The Reds have a strong track record of promoting from within and have several other young midfielders pushing for opportunities. Cashing in on an academy product at this level is often viewed as smart squad management, provided the right replacements are identified.
Jones has given loyal service to the club that developed him, and any move away would likely be handled with mutual respect on both sides.
Next Steps
With the verbal agreement confirmed, attention now turns to the practical details. Personal terms are understood to be progressing positively, and a medical in Milan is expected once the final paperwork is completed. An official announcement from both clubs could follow in the coming days.
Until then, the football world will be watching closely. For Inter fans, the prospect of seeing Jones in the famous black-and-blue stripes is an exciting one. For Liverpool supporters, it is the end of one chapter and the possible beginning of another rebuild in midfield.
