Just a wee added bonus for anyone who thinks Gerrard will swan his way to untold success: Martin Skrtel's deal to Rangers off as club 'cannot fund it'
oops
Martin Skrtel's reunion with former team-mate Steven Gerrard at Rangers appears to be off, according to his agent.
Slovakian Karol Csonto confirmed Skrtel was in contact with Gerrard, who wanted to sign the Fenerbahce defender.
Gerrard was announced as the new Rangers boss earlier this month, following the departure of Graeme Murty, and set about who he wanted to target, but it seems this deal would be "impossible"
"Martin would be very happy to play under Steven Gerrard but sometimes, regarding transfers, you need to put so many things together and in this situation it's impossible", Csonto told the Daily Record.
"When there is only a small difference then you can find a solution, but in this case, the salary of the player in Turkey is four or five times more than what Rangers could offer. That makes it impossible.
