Lokeren defender Laurens de Bock has revealed that "it is very nice" to be linked with a move to Premier League outfit West Bromwich Albion.
The 19-year-old has emerged as a first-team regular for the Belgian club this season and it is understood that he has attracted a host of European interest.
West Brom have been strongly linked with the defender in recent weeks and De Bock has refused to rule out a move.
"It is very nice to hear this. Eventually every player dreams of one day being in a top competition, but I'm realistic enough to realise that I just need to concentrate on Lokeren," De Bock told Voetbalkrant.
"I play my matches and what happens later we'll see. I'm still under contract until 2015 and have it very much to my liking here. It is also great to break through and play at the club where you were a youth player."
De Bock has made four appearances for the Belgium Under-21s.
