Arsenal Set Sights On Martin Skrtel

Arsenal could make an approach for unsettled Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel in the summer.

The Gunners are desperate to revitalize their back four, with Thomas Vermaelen and Bacary Sagna continually linked with moves away from the Emirates.

Liverpool in the mean time snapped up Kolo Toure on a free transfer, and is still looking to make more defensive reinforcements following Jamie Carragher's retirement.

Though Arsenal have been tracking Swansea skipper Ashley Williams, it seems according to a British newspaper that they are ready to launch a £12m bid for Skrtel.

The Slovakian, who was unhappy about being dropped by Brendan Rodgers towards the back end of last season, has also previously been linked with a move to Russian giants Zenit St Petersburg.
