With Oliver Glasner on his way out though, Wharton might see this as the right time to move on, which could make things a little easier.Curtis Jones (Liverpool)Curtis Jones is open to a move to Inter Milan, according to Fabrizio Romano. The Liverpool midfielder was linked with the newly-crowned Serie A champions in January, and it seems the interest from Italy has been maintained.Romano claims that Jones has “shown complete openness” to Inter’s plans, and likes the idea of playing in Italy.Curtis Jones was linked with Inter Milan in January(Image: (Jacques Feeney/Offside/Offside via Getty Images))What’s more, contract talks with Liverpool are said to be on hold, which could push him closer to the exit door.
He is down the pecking order in midfield, and if Liverpool is going to add to its engine room this summer, then his chances of playing are only going to get worse.You can't blame him if he does want to look elsewhere for an opportunity. It's not a move that sits comfortably, given he has worked his way through the academy, but if he feels he needs to move on, it is probably in the Reds' best interests to strike a deal.
