The Filings tab in the Global Company Database contains data on short selling disclosures that have been made public by the regulators. In the EU a short position of 0.5% or more of the outstanding shares of the company are required to become public.

You can see this data aggregated across all countries as well as filtering on the country you wish to see. Within the GCD record too you can see if anyone has made a filing on that specific company.
