Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel will not be joining Italian side Napoli. Rafa Benitez, Napoli's new manager, had hinted that he would be making a move for the player this summer.

Despite reports of a reunion with his former manager at Liverpool, Benitez, the player's agent Karol Csonto has officially ruled out a deal.


"Martin to move away from Liverpool? I specifically say that Skrtel has never said he wants to go away, then it depends on the Liverpool market because everything could change," Csonto quipped.


"It's true that the last two seasons were difficult but in football it can happen.


"Napoli? I think they haven't the financial possibilities to take him. Liverpool has not decided a price because they don't intend to sell the player. Anyway, I don't think that Napoli can afford his wage."
