In-demand striker commits to Red Bull Salzburg

In-demand striker Marc Janko has ended speculation surrounding his future by signing a new deal at Red Bull Salzburg. The towering forward had been linked with a number of clubs across Europe, including Blackburn Rovers and Hoffenheim. However, the 25-year-old has put pen-to-paper on a new contract that will keep him in Austria until June 2013. Janko said: "The club were always loyal to me at times when it was difficult for me and I felt it would be right to give the club something back now. "I had some proposals from abroad, that is right, but I really need continuity and a perfect periphery around me. That's why I signed on with Red Bull." The 6ft 5in frontman has netted a remarkable 30 goals in 20 appearances this season.
