Marko Arnautovic joined the Hammers last year from Stoke City on a then club record fee of 20 million pounds plus add-ons. The Austrian who made his debut under former manager David Moyes has so far made 46 appearances for the Hammers.
The Austrian was a vital cog in West Ham being cleared of the drop zone after the forward scored 11 goals and made 6 assists in 31 league matches. The former Inter Milan man has started this season brightly having already scored 5 goals and made an assist in 11 league appearances.
With reports surfacing about Austrian forward Mako Arnautoivc desire to leave West Ham as early as January in search of Champions League football emerging. Let's take a closer look at which club would suit the former Stoke man.
Trending
5. Atletico Madrid
The Madrid based club has once again started their campaign impressively racking up 23 points from their 12 league matches. The 2017/18 champions are sitting third in La Liga with a single point separating them from the league leaders Barcelona.
With the start, they have got it is likely that Diego Simeone and his men can replicate the 2017/18 seasons. The Spanish side though has found it difficult to rest their main man Diego Costa from the first XI as their new signing Nikola Kalinic has found it hard to find the net since joining the Los Colcheneros on a 3-year deal from Fiorentina.
Marko Arnautovic will be an automatic fit for the Madrid side with the Austrian ability to hold the ball and set up assists for his teammates.
With the possibility of La Liga looming and their ever-presence in the Champions League guaranteed, Marko Arnautovic might be tempted to join the 10-time La Liga Champions.
4 Manchester United
A long-time transfer target for the Red Devils, Arnautovic will provide much-needed competition to their Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku, who is so far having a very poor start to his season.
Manchester United are in need of a backup striker with Alexis Sanchez and Marcus Rashford being the only other alternatives for Jose Mourinho. After a poor start to the season, Manchester United sits 7th on the Premier League table, 12 points adrift of league leaders and reigning champions Manchester City.
The Red Devils may not be the force of yore but still is a European power to reckon with after proving themselves with a victory over Champions League favourites Juventus in Turin. The Austrian who previously played under Jose Mourinho in the famous Inter Milan team that won the treble in 2009/10 season, will be a suitable addition to Mourinho's side that is lacking a proper goal-scoring centre-forward.
3. AS Roma
The Roman side may not guarantee trophies but the Seria A side is one of the best teams on the planet and can fulfil the Austrian's dream of regular Champions League football. The Italian capital-based side has a young squad brimming with talent and an old attacking spearhead in Bosnian Edin Dzeko.
Though the start to the season of last year's Champions League semi-finalists has been rough with 19 points from their 12 matches, the Italian side is just 3 points behind the fourth-placed Lazio. The addition of Marko Arnautovic will surely provide an ample back-up or even a slight upgrade to their tiring warhorse Edin Dzeko, who so far has been vital in many of the matches for Roma for the past couple of years.
Marko Arnautovic has similar traits to Dzeko and can prove to be a better back-up than the young Patrick Schick, who is still learning the trade at the top level of Football.
2. Chelsea
The only team in the top 5 leagues in Europe yet to lose a single match in all competitions, Maurizio Sarri's side has so far made quite an impressive start to the season. The Blues are unbeaten in the Premier League and have racked up 28 points and are just 4 points behind the league leaders Manchester City.
With Oliver Giroud's contract expiring this summer and Alvaro Morata still trying to make it big in the Premier League, Chelsea will be keen to bolster their attacking depth and Marko Arnautovic could prove to be a welcome addition to the squad.
With Chelsea in sublime form and looking likely to secure the Champions League spot next season Marko Arnautovic can make the simple move towards the Hammers London rivals in his quest to achieve Champions League football.
1.Inter Milan
A journey back to one of his old clubs might be exactly what Marko Arnautovic needs to realize his dream of playing more in the Champions League. The Austrian had a year loan spell with the Nerazzurri when they won their historic treble under present Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho in 2010.
The Black and Blue striped side of Milan has made a good start to their domestic campaign gaining 25 points from their opening 12 matches, but the ruthless form of the defending Champions has seen the Turin side gaining a 9-point lead over the Milan side.
The Seria A side has been banking upon the goals from the Argentine Mauro Icardi for so long that there has not been a proper back-up to the star striker. The addition of Arnautovic can help the Nerazzurri give proper rest to their star striker and help the Austrian achieve his wish of playing in the Champions League.
