Tomas Ujfalusi's agent Pavel Paska has claimed that Liverpool made
an enquiry about the availability of the Fiorentina defender.
The Czech Republic international has 12 months remaining on his
present deal and was linked with a move to Sevilla earlier this
summer.
With Jamie Carragher currently out injured after sustaining a
broken rib, Paska explained that Rafa Benitez was keen to secure
the player as defensive cover.
However Ujfalusi is only keen on a move to Spain and has reportedly
turned down the enquiry.
"Liverpool have a problem as Jamie Carragher has picked up a
serious injury," Paska told Sport.
"Manager Rafael Benitez together with the club director Ricky Parry
have therefore asked me if I could address the offer to
Tomas.
"Tomas has consulted it with his family and told me that he was
happy with life in Italy and that the only country he would move to
is Spain.
"I have to respect his decision, nevertheless it has surprised me a
lot. Liverpool never give this offer twice to one player."
