Chelsea are one of several Premier League clubs following West Ham United striker Marko Arnautovic according to his brother and agent Daniel Arnautovic.
Arnautovic has looked a world class player at times for the Hammers since his move to the East London club in the summer of 2017. His 16 goals in 46 appearances for West Ham make him one of their best attackers and currently value him at £50 million.
The Austrian is being monitored by Manchester United, with Jose Mourinho also considering adding him to his rich list of forward players. Arnautovic is also on Chelsea and Everton’s radar as per his agent.
“He is ready for the next step. It’s not like that he wants to leave, but we believe that the time has come that Marko takes a step forward in his career, maybe try to win a trophy, maybe the Champions League. The stats are on his side.”

Chelsea are struggling to find goals this season despite their attractive style under Maurizio Sarri. The big share of possession gained has increased chances per game at the club but their strikers, Alvaro Morata and Olivier Giroud are failing in their attempts hence the need for a new striker.
