Last updated: October 2026

The midfielder’s departure from Anfield came after a period of speculation regarding his contract, with his previous deal at Liverpool reportedly earning him far less than many of his first-team peers. Inter announced the signing on 21 August 2026, confirming a contract with the club until 30 June 2031.

Curtis Jones’s Inter Milan Salary Breakdown

After Jones signed for Inter Milan in August 2026, several outlets reported the details of his new contract, though the specifics varied. The transfer fee was reported by Goal.com as €30 million plus €6 million in bonuses, while Anfield Watch cited a deal of around £30m including bonuses and add-ons.

The main estimates for his salary differ based on currency, whether they include bonuses, and if they are calculated before or after tax.

There is also a notable discrepancy in the reported length of his contract. Salary Sport lists his deal as expiring in June 2027, whereas Goal.com and SalaryLeaks report a five-year deal running until June 2031 — the date Inter gave in its official announcement.

Salary History and Contract at Liverpool

Jones’s move to Italy came after he and Liverpool were unable to agree terms on a new contract. His previous deal, a five-year extension signed in 2022 and running to June 2027, had a total value of $3,900,000, according to Spotrac’s player page, which lists the deal in dollars rather than pounds.

Reports on his weekly wage under the 2022 deal varied significantly between sources.

  • £15,000 per week: Spotrac’s payroll data for the 2023-24 season listed Jones with an annual salary of £780,000, which equates to £15,000 per week. SalaryLeaks also reported this figure for his 2022 contract.
  • £50,000 per week: Anfield Watch wrote in August 2026 that his 2022 renewal took him to a reported £50,000 per week, exclusive of bonuses. Empire of the Kop, writing in February 2026, cited the same figure from Capology, noting it was the “lowest of anyone at Liverpool who isn’t a backup or academy player”.
  • £67,000 per week: Salary Sport’s historical data shows Jones on this wage during the 2023, 2024 and 2025 seasons.

By early 2026, Empire of the Kop argued that Jones would be justified in feeling his value to the squad was not reflected in his pay. Journalist David Lynch, in an interview with Anfield Index quoted by Empire of the Kop in February 2026, said he would “almost be surprised” if Jones signed a new contract, adding that it was “important to have homegrown players who are genuinely useful”.

With Former Liverpool Teammates

At Liverpool, Jones’s salary placed him in the lower bracket of established first-team players. Based on Spotrac’s 2023-24 payroll data, his reported weekly wage was comparable to fellow youngsters like Ben Doak and Jarell Quansah, who were also listed with an annual salary of £780,000. It was significantly lower than the club’s top earners at the time, such as Mohamed Salah (£350,000 per week) and Virgil van Dijk (£220,000 per week).

According to Anfield Watch, contract talks never produced a new deal after his 2022 renewal. The general pay scales across the sport are vast, as explored in our feature on how much footballers get paid.

A product of Liverpool’s academy, Jones spent his entire professional career at Anfield before his move to Italy. By February 2026 he had passed 200 appearances for the club, according to Empire of the Kop.

His earnings have grown in line with his increasing importance to the team. Salary Sport estimates his total career earnings from wages, across nine recorded seasons up to 2026, to be £20,038,200.
