West Ham have reportedly received a take it or leave it bid of £22million from China for Marko Arnautovic.
Although it is lower than the Hammers’ valuation of the Austria international, Football.London West Ham correspondent Sam Inkersole claims that the club are likely to accept the offer in order to be rid of the forward.
This offer comes just days after the 30-year old handed in a transfer request, just six months on from informally requesting to leave the London Stadium before committing to a contract extension of unspecified length.
The Hammers have reportedly already rejected a £19.7million bid for the former Stoke City forward this summer, but appear close to closing this transfer saga and wiping their hands clean.
If the club do decide to accept the offer, it will come as a huge downgrade on the offer they received in January, where an unnamed Chinese club (assumed to be Shanghai SIPG) submitted a £35million offer.
