Skrtel open to offers

Last updated : 28 May 2013 By Adam Bryant

Skrtel has been linked with a possible move back to his former club Zenit St Petersburg and, with Liverpool linked with Kolo Toure and others to replace Jamie Carragher, his future is in doubt.

"I have not had any specific offers but, if some should come and they interest me, I would probably ponder it seriously," admitted the Slovakian defender.

"The club has the biggest say in this in any case, because they have the right for it with me being contracted. Besides, I am not saying that I want to leave at any cost.

"I feel sorry for what happened in this season, but I have been here for five-and-a-half years and I have built a position here.

"The coach decided he wanted to change the team and justified to me that we lacked the organisation and defensive leadership personality - that was Carragher.

"Obviously I was not happy, it bugged me. On the other hand, I realise that only 11 can play and the 11 the coach chooses now is without me.

"I decided to add even more in training, so I was ready for a chance to show that I belong on the field, and not on the bench."
