Jose Mourinho wants Manchester United to sign Marko Arnautovic in January
Several pundits have, over the past few weeks, weighed in on the matter of whether or not Marko Arnautovic is good enough to be playing for the Top 6 of the Premier League. With most of them agreeing that he should, this shouldn't come as much of a surprise.
As per Metro, Manchester United boss wants the board to sign Marko Arnautovic from West Ham United. The Red Devils' gaffer believes that this will help ease the pressure on Romelu Lukaku who is struggling in front of goal and hasn't scored at Old Trafford since March.
The Sunday Mirror adds that if the opportunity becomes available, Arnautovic would be open to making the switch. The report claims that Manchester United could be preparing a £50 million bid to bring the Austrian international to Old Trafford.
Arnautovic, who joined the Hammers from Stoke last year has scored 16 goals in 42 Premier League appearances and has been quite reliable up front.
