Hannover 96 Manager Mirko Slomka Admits Interest In Liverpool Youngster Krisztian Nemeth

Hannover 96 manager Mirko Slomka has admitted to admiring Liverpool striker Krisztian Nemeth and could be prepared to snap him up at the right price.

Nemeth, 21, has yet to make the breakthrough into the Anfield first team despite being a highly-rated young player. After grabbing three goals in 17 appearances while on loan at AEK Athens last season, Italian side Lecce are understood to have bid £1 million to bring him permanently to the club.

Speaking to Bild, Slomka confirmed he could be prepared to challenge the Serie A new boys for the Hungary international.

"He is a good player with decent speed and he has been on loan at AEK Athens recently," Slomka said.

"He did not play many matches in recent campaigns and I am not aware if he is affordable."

But Hannover general manager Jorg Schmadtke commented: "I am not aware of that player."
