Liverpool have turned down Inter Milan’s second bid of £21 million for Curtis Jones, per [The Times](https://www.thetimes.com/sport/football/article/curtis-jones-liverpool-inter-milan-second-bid-3x3h85dzt).
The Reds are said to be unhappy with Inter’s considerably low offer and do not consider the Serie A champions as serious contenders for the 25-year-old.
They value the midfielder at £35m, benchmarking their price tag against Conor Gallagher’s move to Tottenham Hotspur from Atletico Madrid in January for a similar fee.
Jones has been an important member of Liverpool’s first-team over the years, amassing 228 appearances across all competitions and scoring 22 goals.
But he has never nailed down a consistent starting role and the Merseyside giants don’t consider him untouchable.
Last season, Jones featured in 30 Premier League games, with only 18 coming from the start.
With only a year left on his current contract at Anfield, Liverpool are not in a strong negotiating position.
But despite the risk of losing the midfielder for nothing next summer, they are not prepared to lower their asking price.
[Liverpool have already confirmed the departures of Mohamed Salah](https://footballtoday.com/2026/03/25/10-moments-that-defined-mohamed-salahs-liverpool-legacy/) and Andy Robertson, while Ibrahima Konate is on his way to Real Madrid on a free transfer.
There are also speculations over the futures of Virgil van Dijk, Alisson, Joe Gomez and Wataru Endo, who are all due to be out of contract in 2027.
