Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones is reportedly open to staying at the club, amid uncertainty about the offers currently available to him.
The 25-year-old has been a solid first-team player for Liverpool down the years, but it's debatable if he's really developed as many at the club would have hoped.
With just a year left on his current Liverpool contract, it was thought that Jones was leaning towards leaving Anfield, but the latest developments suggest otherwise.
Inter Milan, one of the clubs interested in signing Jones, is struggling to afford him, while the player himself is not convinced by an opportunity to move to Nottingham Forest.
This could see Jones stay at Liverpool for at least another season, potentially enjoying a fresh start under incoming new manager Andoni Iraola.
However, the situation is still fluid, and Jones' asking price of £30m may be a deterrent for some clubs, with other suitors potentially entering the running in the weeks ahead.
Liverpool may also be willing to lower their asking price to avoid the risk of losing Jones on a free transfer in a year's time.
Liverpool fans will have mixed feelings about this, as Jones is a homegrown player who's never really let the club down, but there's certainly a lot of risk for Liverpool if they keep him this summer and fail to agree a new contract with him.
