Borussia Dortmund forward Marco Reus is "flattered" by stories linking him with a move to the Premier League, but is happy in the Bundesliga, according to his agency.

Reus has long been mentioned alongside a number of Premier League clubs, with Arsenal and Liverpool regularly credited with an interest in the Germany international's services.

Real Madrid are also thought to be fans of the 26-year-old, while reports in Tuttomercatoweb on Saturday claimed Arsenal were frontrunners for his signature.

The agency representing Reus, Sport Total, have welcomed the speculation concerning their client's future, but insist Reus - who signed a new four-year deal in February - is happy at Dortmund.

"We read the rumours that are circulating about an alleged transfer for Marco," the agency said in a statement released to Tuttojuve.com.

"We can say with certainty that the player is having a wonderful time at Dortmund. He is flattered by the interest of many European teams, but he's recently decided to stay in Dortmund."
