Liverpool have agreed a £6.5m fee for Skrtel with St Petersburg, they have agreed personal terms with the defender and the Slovakia international has now passes a medical.
As soon as club owners George Gillett and Tom Hicks rubber stamp the deal, Rafael Benitez can add Skrtel to his first team squad. The Reds are hopeful the deal can go through in time for Skrtel to be included in Saturday's squad to face Middlesbrough.
