But it is the sort of stopgap option that has kept United fans frustrated for years, and a far cry from recruiting players in their pomp like Robin van Persie and Dimitar Berbatov. He was a crucial member of their side last season and netted 15 goals in 33 appearances. Marko scored 15 goals last season and Mihajlovic deserves credit for that.' Edinson Cavani joined under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as a 33-year-old. Like with West Ham. Beautiful time in England.' We always watched him play,' Arnautovic's agent and brother Danijel said in June. This is football.' Arnautovic turns 34 in April 2023, and he is not the first striker not at the peak of his career that United have gone for. 'Vlahovic is a young striker, he is only 22 and could benefit from playing with a forward who has the experience of Marko. Anything is possible in football, you never know what could happen. He was a crucial member for Bologna last season and netted 15 goals in 33 appearances Signings are therefore required in that area, and it has led them to seek a deal for a man who has scored 43 Premier League goals in his career.

"I’ve got a comment on everything in the world - apart from Manchester United signing Marko Arnautovic! I’ve got nothing to say." Marko is priceless for us.

Erik ten Hag got a rude awakening to life at Old Trafford - he has the conviction of his abilities, will he get the signings to match?

Glazer’s attendance coincided with a protest march organised by The 1958 group, which was attended by several hundred fans and culminated in the forced closure of the megastore before the game. He responded after the break and showed his talent in possession. Meanwhile, Ronaldo’s importance to the team is raised at a moment when his commitment is not absolute. After the game, Kees Vos, one of Ten Hag’s agents, was in conversation with David Gill, United’s former chief executive. Ten Hag said Ronaldo’s 10 days of training with the team were not sufficient to gain a start. Ten Hag worked with Arnautovic at FC Twente and is influencing this move, which the club regards as a low-cost way of supplementing their attack. Odion Ighalo, the last player United signed with that kind of record, was supposed to be a unique case for an emergency situation. Ten Hag has chosen Lisandro Martinez, Tyrell Malacia, Christian Eriksen and, of course, Frenkie de Jong. Where are the proposals from the recruitment department? Arnautovic is seen as carrying the kind of self-belief United’s dressing room requires and 14 goals in Serie A for Bologna last season shows he still has his scoring touch. Yet this is a player who spent two years in China after leaving West Ham United in 2019, a wilderness where not even United’s vast army of scouts travels. Erik ten Hag is the fresh face in the dugout but his line-up was evidence that the problems his predecessors encountered remain. There were blue skies over Old Trafford, which was warm with hope as the players emerged from the tunnel before kick-off.

The Austrian, 33, is being courted by Manchester United with the club already having seen an initial bid rejected by Bologna for the forward.

'It was a bet that we won, he responded on the pitch and we want to move forward with him. 'It’s not a question of money, he’s priceless for what he represents for us. 'It’s not easy to play in the transfer window, there’s a lot of talk, we want to keep Marko [Arnautovic],' he said.

Manchester United are looking to bring ex-West Ham and Stoke striker Marko Arnautovic to Old Trafford.

This simulation suggests it may be a mistake for United to go for Arnautovic this summer, with better and more long-term options available. United were also beaten in the Carabao Cup by Chelsea, this time losing 2-0 to the Blues in the third round. This is what United's best XI looked like at the end of the 2022/23 season as predicted by Football Manager 2022: In all competitions, the Austrian only started eight games for United, whilst coming on as a sub for a further 19. We also updated the game with the latest Premier League results and transfers. With Anthony Martial injured, speculation around the future of Cristiano Ronaldo and Marcus Rashford misfiring, Arnautovic is understood to be a short-term solution.

Manchester United have made Bologna star Marko Arnautovic their top transfer target to help supplement their strikers going into the final weeks of the ...

"Back in Milan I thought we were training in the morning and I went in just perfect," the Bologna star told the Daily Mail in 2017. The two headstrong characters were a recipe for disaster at the San Siro - but remarkably, there was one incident that left The Special One barreling with laughter. And when you are in a Mourinho team - it is his way or no way.

Manchester United's late scramble for attacking reinforcements looks set to continue after Bologna chief Marco di Vaio ruled out Marko Arnautovic's exit ...

With less than a month until the deadline passes, United are at serious risk of letting Ten Hag down in his first transfer window. United are uncomfortably lean in the attacking department after Edinson Cavani, Juan Mata and Jesse Lingard's summer exits and Mason Greenwood's continued suspension. Ahead of Bologna's Coppa Italia clash against Cosenza, Di Vaio admitted the club were proud of a European heavyweight like United's interest in one of their players.

Man Utd could face more misery in the transfer market after Bologna's manager and sporting director both talked tough on the idea of selling Arnautovic.

“It was a bet that we won, he responded on the pitch and we want to move forward with him. We want to move forward with him because we believe he can do better and help us grow. If he goes away we will see, but I don’t think so.” In that sense, he looks a fine and relatively low risk capture on paper. The Austrian veteran, 33, has emerged as a surprise target to bolster Erik ten Hag’s forward line. “The interest in him makes us proud, especially because he was an idea by Sabatini and carried forward by the club to realise a dream, which was to bring him here after two or three years in China.
