Pedulla: Arnautovic wants Milan ‘at all costs’ as further talks take place

Marko Arnautovic wants to join AC Milan this summer so he can have one last chance to play at a top club, according to a report.

According to Alfredo Pedulla, Arnautovic wants a move to Milan ‘at all costs’. It is his first choice ahead of the summer window and there have been contacts with his agent – who also happens to be his brother – in view of the upcoming mercato.

Arnautovic is fine in Bologna, he doesn’t have an expiring contract and he is grateful to the club that brought him back to Italy from China. However, he feels ready to make a leap.

At 34 he wants one more shot at playing in European competitions and Milan are interested in signing him in the event of Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s farewell, without excluding another younger signing for the centre-forward department.

Ante Rebic also has his suitcase packed and there will be reflections on Divock Origi. Arnautovic has been on Milan’s list since last summer when Napoli, Juventus and Roma were keen, but now there is more ‘conviction’.
