​  Last summer, Liverpool had a lot of transfer deals that were rather long and drawn out.Alexander Isak is the best example of this as, even though their interest was first reported in May, they didn’t confirm his transfer until deadline day.Most people thought that he’d be unreal for the Anfield outfit but due to fitness and injury issues, he never really got out of first gear.Since then, it seems like Liverpool have learnt from their mistakes with their signing of Victor Munoz getting completed in just a couple of days.However, in terms of selling players, they’ve clearly not learnt their lesson as Richard Hughes and Andoni Iraola look to be gearing themselves up for a back-and-forth war between the Reds and a European giants for one of their own players.Curtis Jones’ future has been the talk of the town for the last couple of months now.The Englishman only has a year left on his current contract and, if Liverpool don’t extend his stay or move him on this summer, they’re going to be putting themselves in another terrible situation.The Anfield outfit have already lost three of their regular starters on free transfers over the last couple of years with Mohamed Salah also terminating his deal early, resulting in no monetary gain for Liverpool aside from his weekly wage.So, if the Reds don’t come to an agreement with Jones about his future soon, he could also end up leaving L4 for nothing.Despite this, Fabrizio Romano has just shared a new update on the Englishman’s situation and what the Reds’ stance currently is.“Liverpool are following a very English line of reasoning,” he said via his YouTube channel.”In England, Van Hecke, who is a very good central defender for Brighton, but he is still a central defender for Brighton, he is not Maradona, was sold to Tottenham a couple of days ago for 52 million pounds plus 20% of the resale value.”[This] means a valuation well over 60 million euros if we factor in the player’s resale value.”We’re talking about a centre-back whose contract expires in a year.”Imagine Curtis Jones, who is also a homegrown player, meaning he’s very useful on English clubs’ lists because he grew up in an English youth academy. So this is a situation that leads Liverpool to make much higher demands than Inter’s valuations.”Bet £10, Get £30 in Free BetsOpen an account and place a qualifying bet of £10 at min odds of 1/5 (1.2) or greater.18+New UK/ROI customers.
