LIVERPOOL FC

Lazio defender Aleksandar Kolarov has said he is flattered at being linked with some of Europe's top clubs.

Reports around the peninsula claim Jose Mourinho and Inter are keen admirers of him, but Premier League side Liverpool and Spanish giants Real Madrid are also interested.

"I always read the papers and see that different clubs are interested in me," Kolarov is quoted as saying on Tuttomercatoweb.com.

"Interest from Real Madrid, Liverpool and Inter flatters me, but there has never been anything concrete. For now I want to think about Lazio's survival."
