Tottenham are reportedly stepping up their interest in Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones, considering a late-window move as part of their efforts to strengthen the squad.<\/p>\n
The North London club\u2019s pursuit of Jones comes alongside their ongoing interest in Andy Robertson, highlighting a bold attempt to recruit two established Liverpool players. According to Liverpool insider DaveOCKOP, Spurs are preparing an initial \u00a330 million offer for Jones ahead of the transfer deadline.<\/p>\n
Jones, 24, has long been admired by Tottenham\u2019s recruitment team, and new assistant coach John Heitinga \u2014 who previously worked with Arne Slot at Feyenoord \u2014 reportedly holds both Jones and Robertson in high regard. However, Liverpool are unlikely to accept such a bid. The midfielder remains an important figure under Slot, and with his continued development into a tactically mature player, the club would demand a much higher fee to even consider negotiations. Jurgen Klopp has previously described Jones as an \u201cexceptional\u201d player.<\/p>\n
With injuries and squad depth concerns affecting Spurs, Thomas Frank is keen to add a technically capable, attack-minded midfielder to the squad.<\/p>\n
There is also a potential ripple effect: if Liverpool were ever to sanction Jones\u2019 sale \u2014 though this is seen as unlikely \u2014 it could accelerate their interest in Adam Wharton, the Crystal Palace midfielder Slot views as a future cornerstone of his system.<\/p>\n
While Spurs\u2019 interest in Jones is genuine, Liverpool\u2019s reluctance means any deal would require a significantly improved offer, and even then, Slot\u2019s stance could make negotiations extremely difficult. Nonetheless, Tottenham\u2019s pursuit of two of Liverpool\u2019s experienced players underscores their ambition to rebuild the squad with proven Premier League talent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
