Liverpool are bracing for a bid from Manchester City for defender Martin Skrtel. The Sun says City are huge fans of the centre-back and interest heightened further with the news that talks over Skrtel's new contract have so far come to nothing.
The Reds are desperate to tie him up on a longer-term agreement.
Yet Skrtel has not given any hint of an imminent signing and City would have no problem blowing his wages of around £60,000 a week out of the water.
