Arnautovic/United update
Media reports and social media chat has been suggesting that a deal is in the offing after talks, on the one hand with Marko’s agent, and. on the other, with the club.
However, despite figures being bandied around of between £50 million and £75 million, the club claim there has been no contact from Jose Mourinho or any other major figure at Old Trafford.
We were told categorically there had been “no inquiry, offer, agent contact or anything else” and that the Hammer of the Year is not for sale anyway.
However, should United eventually make a move and be ready to offer the striker a huge rise it would of course be next door to impossible to hold him.
However, there seems little question from our inquiries that at this stage the speculation is no more than that and the Hammers, meanwhile, are pursuing their own inquiries for players with Felipe Anderson the highest on their agenda at the moment.
