Speculation of a move away from Napoli for Marek Hamsik has been played down, with the player’s agent insisting he is happy with the Serie A club.

The Slovakia playmaker has been linked with a number of European sides, with Liverpool tipped as leaders in the race to sign the 27-year-old in January.

Hamsik has been an influential force under former Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez at Napoli, registering a double-digit goal tally in all but one of his seasons with the Italian club.

However, reports suggest Napoli are set for wholesale changes in January meaning the 71-cap international could be on the market, although his agent insists he is settled at the Stadio San Paolo.

"Marek could be sold whenever he wants, but while he feels good at Napoli we don't need to take into consideration any other options", Juraj Venglos told Sky Sport Italia.

The agent added: "Should he decide he wants to move, things will change. But at the moment Marek feels good at Napoli.”

Hamsik is in line to make his fifth Serie A appearance of the season on Sunday as Napoli host Torino.
