Bayern Munich defender Danny van Buyten admits he's happy with reports linking him to AC Milan.

Van Buyten recently penned a two-year extension to his current deal at the Allianz Arena after declining an offer to sign for the Rossoneri, but the Belgium international admitted that he was tempted by a move to Serie A.

The 32-year-old told L'Equipe: "I received two beautiful propositions, and one of them really made me hesitate. It came from AC Milan.

"The Milan officials told me to wait a little, but I didn't have a lot of time.

"With Bayern, there were some difficulties during negotiations as I let them know that a one-year contract was not exciting for me.

"Then I scored some goals and everything was sorted out quite quickly."
