FC Twente striker Marc Janko insists he is flattered by reports linking him with a move to Serie A surprise package Lazio.

It's no secret that Lazio are in the market for a target man capable of taking the goalscoring burden off Sergio Floccari and Tommaso Rocchi.

Speaking after last night's Champions League clash with Tottenham, the Austria international said: "I am flattered by Lazio's interest.

"I have got to know about it through a teammate and it can't but make me happy."

Il Corriere dello Sport understands Lazio would like to loan the 27-year-old in January, offering Libor Kozak in exchange.
