Inter Milan bring in midfielder Jones from Liverpool

Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones has completed his transfer to Serie A champions Inter Milan for a fee of 35 million euros ($40 million) on Friday. The deal includes a 30 million euro upfront payment with an additional 5 million euros in potential add-ons. Liverpool also negotiated a 10% sell-on clause if Jones is sold on from Inter Milan.

The 24-year-old made 228 appearances for Liverpool, including 49 last season, but only 18 of those were starts in the Premier League. He expressed his unhappiness with the lack of playing time during his time at Anfield. Jones joined the club's academy at the age of nine and made his first-team debut in 2019 under manager Jürgen Klopp.

Inter Milan agreed to pay the majority of the fee up front, while Liverpool retained the option to earn a 10% share if Jones is transferred elsewhere from Inter. With only one year left on his contract, Jones had informed his new coach Andoni Iraola of his desire to leave as early as upon arrival at Inter.
