Liverpool are keeping close tabs on highly-rated Slovak defender Martin Skrtel. Hamburg and Anderlecht are also monitoring the 20-year-old who is
currently plying his trade in Russia with Zenit St Petersburg. Skrtel only moved to Zenit last summer from AS Trencin when they beat Hertha Berlin to
his signature, mainly due to the fact that the Russian side are managed by Slovak Vlastimil Petrzhela. Now the youngster has emerged as one of the
best defenders in the Russian league and he is attracting interest from some of Europe's big hitters.
