Swedish international Andreas Granqvist says that he is "flattered" to be linked with Liverpool.

Genoa centre-back Andreas Granqvist has said that he is "flattered" to be linked with a move to Liverpool.

The 27-year-old, who spent a season on loan at Wigan Athletic in 2007, has impressed in Serie A since his move from Groningen last summer.

According to reports, Brendan Rodgers has been tracking the Swede's progress and is now considering a January bid.

Granqvist, who has 27 caps for his country, said that he is happy at Genoa, but welcomed interest from Liverpool.

"Honestly, I don't know much about this interest," Granqvist told Sportbladet. "I am happy in Genoa, but obviously I am flattered by the interest from the Reds.

"They are an historic and successful club."

Granqvist made 14 appearances for Wigan.
