Reports in Belgium suggest a number of Premier League clubs are keen on Club Brugge ace Nabil Dirar.

The 23-year-old midfielder enjoyed an eye-catching 2008/09 campaign in the Belgian top flight, helping to bring him to the attention of teams across Europe.

It is, however, in England that he is reported to be causing the biggest stir, with interest said to be mounting.

Morocco international Dirar admits he is honoured just to be linked with a move to the Premier League, though, and insists he would not be too disappointed should a switch fail to materialise.

"I am flattered by the reports of interest from the Premier League," he told skysports.com.

"That means I must be doing something good.

"However, I am under contract with Brugge until 2013, so if I go the club will play a big part in that.

"Let's wait and see what develops over the summer."
