The 30-year-old defender has reignited speculatio
surrounding his future by claiming the terms bein
offered to him currently make him feel uneasy
Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel has branded the
club’s most recent contract offer “unacceptable”
and has hinted at a possible Anfield exit this
summer.
Skrtel re-established himself as Liverpool’s first
choice centre-back this season and only last
month appeared to confirm he was planning on
remaining with the Merseyside club amid reported
interest from Napoli and Wolfsburg.
But the 30-year-old Slovakia international has
reignited speculation surrounding his future by
claiming the terms currently on offer have made
him feel “uneasy”.
Speaking to Slovakian publication Aktualne, Skrtel
was quoted as saying: “It's unacceptable for me. I
think that such contracts are offered to players
who are much older than me or players who have
had some health problems.
“The contract, which was presented to me, makes
me uneasy, so I did not sign it.
“There has been some speculation about the
interest of other clubs for me, but they are
currently being addressed.”
Skrtel’s issue creates a problem for Brendan
Rodgers, who on Tuesday earned a reprieve
following productive talks with chairman Tom
Werner and Fenway Sports Group president Mike
Gordon.
Liverpool missed out on Champions League
qualification following a dismal end of season run
which culminated in a final day 6-1 mauling at
Stoke.
