Liverpool reject Curtis Jones’ transfer request | OneFootball

Liverpool have complicated Inter’s plans by ruling out a direct exit for Curtis Jones, despite the player’s desire to move to Milan.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the English midfielder officially requested a transfer to the Nerazzurri, but the Premier League giants have blocked a standard sale. Instead, the future of the 25-year-old has become intrinsically linked to that of Denzel Dumfries.

Liverpool have expressed a strong interest in the Dutch wing-back and would like to include Jones as a key counterpart in a deal for the former PSV man. While Inter had viewed Jones as the ideal replacement for the outgoing Davide Frattesi, they now find themselves in a complex negotiation where the two operations could merge into a single swap deal.

The move for Jones now depends entirely on whether Liverpool decide to accelerate for Dumfries and if Inter are willing to sacrifice their starting wing-back to secure the midfield reinforcement. With the clock ticking, this potential exchange has become one of the most significant storylines in the final hours of the window.
