Nicolas Anelka happy at West Bromwich Albion

Anelka happy at West Brom

West Bromwich Albion striker Nicolas Anelka has admitted that he is happy at the club despite reported interest from Lazio.

The Frenchman, 34, has been linked with a move away from the Baggies after creating a media storm over his 'quenelle' goal celebration - a gesture that is alleged to have anti-Semitic connotations.

Anelka was recently charged with misconduct over the incident by the Football Association, but he denies the charge.

He tweeted: "Thanks to Lazio & all the others clubs who wanted to sign me this last days. See you this summer if I decide to continue...

"But the question is why should I leave my club & England? I'm happy here & I did nothing wrong..."

Anelka joined West Brom on a free transfer last summer.
