Club Career

Liverpool

Having grown up in the centre of Liverpool, Jones joined Liverpool at the age of nine. After making his U23s debut in January 2018, Jones signed his first professional contract on 1 February 2018.

He was named in Liverpool's squad for the Premier League match against Everton on 7 April 2018 and was included on the substitute bench without making an appearance.

Jones featured prominently for Liverpool during pre-season ahead of the 2018–19 season. Manager Jurgen Klopp praised his mobility and dribbling skills.

Jones made his first team debut on 7 January 2019, in the FA Cup third round against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

2019–20 season

Jones made his season debut and played in his second competitive match for the club on 25 September 2019 in an EFL Cup match against Milton Keynes Dons. He was chosen as Man of the Match.

He then scored the winning penalty in Liverpool's EFL Cup penalty shoot-out victory against Arsenal. He made his Premier League debut on 7 December 2019, from the substitute's bench, against AFC Bournemouth.

On 5 January 2020, Jones was part of a Liverpool team largely made up of teenagers and reserves that defeated rivals Everton 1–0 in the FA Cup at Anfield. Jones scored the winning goal – his first goal for the club – with a curling strike from 20 yards. At 18 years and 340 days, Jones became the youngest goalscorer in the Merseyside derby since Robbie Fowler scored for Liverpool in 1994. In the next round three weeks later, he scored again to open a 2–2 draw at Shrewsbury Town, becoming the first teenager to net in consecutive games for the Reds since Raheem Sterling in April 2014. On 5 February 2020, Jones became Liverpool's youngest ever captain – at 19 years and 5 days – when he captained Liverpool's youngest ever first
