Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel is a target for Galatasaray, writes Neil Moxley in the Sunday People.

The Reds centre-back, who only has 24 months left on his Liverpool contract, has been offered a £100,000-a-week contract to ply his trade in the Turkish Süper Lig.

The Mirror reports that Skrtel is happy at Anfield but could be swayed by the increased wage packet and the prospect of playing alongside Didier Drogba and Wesley Sneijder.

The Mirror also understands that Iago Aspas is set for a £3.6 million transfer to La Liga club Sevilla, having joined Liverpool for double that fee just 12 months ago.

Elsewhere, Liverpool look likely to miss out in the race for Barcelona forward Alexis Sanchez. The Chilean forward is one of the hottest properties on the transfer market this summer and Brendan Rodgers was thought to be working hard to secure a deal for the 25-year-old.

However, emerging reports suggest that Barcelona have agreed a £32 million with Arsenal for the sale of Sanchez, with The Gunners now given the go-ahead to discuss personal terms with the player.
