Curtis Jones has officially concluded his 16-year association with Liverpool, moving to Inter Milan for a reported transfer fee of approximately £30m. The 25-year-old midfielder’s departure marks the end of a long-standing link with the club, a journey that commenced when he joined the academy as a youngster.

During his time at Anfield, Jones established himself as a key figure in the squad, making more than 200 appearances and scoring 22 goals. His contributions were instrumental in the team securing six major honours, a tally that includes two Premier League titles.

Following the finalisation of the move, Jones took to social media to share a detailed farewell message with supporters. He reflected on his personal growth, noting that he arrived at the club as a child with a dream and is now departing as a man with a family of his own.

The midfielder specifically acknowledged the impact of becoming a father during his tenure, stating that having his daughter made the experience even more special. He described Liverpool not just as part of his personal story, but as an integral part of his family’s narrative.

Jones also extended his gratitude to the academy staff, coaches, and teammates who supported his development over the years. He paid tribute to the fans who remained loyal throughout his career, declaring that he would always consider himself one of them.

The move to Inter Milan represents a new chapter for Jones and his family. The transfer follows a similar recent acquisition by the Serie A side, which signed England full-back Djed Spence from Tottenham Hotspur for a comparable fee.
