Jose Mourinho wants Manchester United to sign West Ham striker Marko Arnautovic in the January transfer window, according to reports.
The United boss was keen on the Austria international in the summer but did not submit an offer to West Ham.
But according to the Sunday Mirror, Mourinho believes Arnautovic can provide an answer to his attacking headache at Old Trafford.
And it’s report that United are now lining up a bid in excess of £50 million.
Arnautovic, who joined in a £24m deal from Stoke City last year, has quickly become a key part of West Ham’s attack with 16 goals in 42 Premier League appearances.
But the Sunday Mirror reports that the 29-year-old would be open to joining United if the opportunity becomes available.
Mourinho briefly worked with Arnautovic at Inter but described the Austrian as having the ‘mentality of a child’.
The United manager is currently in the market for a new attacker to ease the pressure on Romelu Lukaku, who is without a goal in 11 appearances for United.
Anthony Martial has excelled from his favoured role on the left flank, while Mourinho has trialled Alexis Sanchez through the centre but dropped him after two games for the defeat to Manchester City before the international break.
