Keep Harvey, sell Jones.”“He can go mate; he is bang average. Why should he stay?

Why?”“Get him gone and take the money. So obvious he won’t sign a new deal if he stays, just can’t let him go for free, not sure why quite a few are begging him to stay and blaming the club when he clearly wants to go”“Hopefully he leaves so that we can buy a proper defensive midfielder with his fee”“Let’s be honest here, the writing is on the wall for Jones; he will be gone, and imo that’s probably why we will get a midfielder in”“Can we just get him gone and then go get a proper 6?”“He’s not worth all this trouble; clearly doesn’t want to extend”“Bidding war, get 35m, add 15 or 20 on them and get Kone, get Wharton for 80, get Mbaye for RW and Barcola for LW, any decent RB”“Let him go, reinvest well classic LFC rebuild play”“I think it’s clear he doesn’t want to stay, so just sell and get Kone”Which midfielders are Liverpool trying to sign?If Jones does go, that will leave Alexis Mac Allister, Ryan Gravenberch and Dominik Szoboszlai as the only regular starters left in midfield.Reinforcements are needed regardless of what happens to the academy talent, though, and several names are already being mooted.Liverpool can buy Manu Kone for €60m, but there are concerns about the AS Roma midfielder’s injury record.Joao Gomes is another option, and he had already expressed his love for the Reds and former manager Jurgen Klopp.We also know that Adam Wharton and Alex Scott are of interest, but both may be on the pricier side.Join Our NewsletterReceive a digest of our best Liverpool content each week direct to your mailbox
