Marko Arnautovic Transfer Rumors: Is the Bologna Star Heading to Saudi Arabia?

Marko Arnautovic (34) once again delivers the headline of the summer.

In the tranquil South Tyrolean town of Vals (approx. 1,000 inhabitants), FC Bologna is currently preparing for the new Serie A season. But whether Marko Arnautovic will still be seen in the Bologna dress against AC Milan on August 21 is anyone’s guess. Reason: Arnie is said to have an offer from Saudi Arabia on the table.

This is reported by a sports portal from the Arab world. Further details are currently not known. However: Arnautovic Club Bologna announced at the end of the season that they would listen to offers for the top earner (3 million euros per year).

Reason: The relationship between Arnie and coach Thiago Motta should be tense. Since then there has been speculation about a transfer. However, another station within Italy (eg AC Milan) has so far been considered the most likely option. But Arnautovic recently angrily commented on rumors about transfers or alleged injuries on Instagram: “Stop spreading fake news about me! I have no injury! My foot is fine! I’m fit and preparing for the new season.”

Ex-West Ham coach Bilic in the Saudi League

And the current training photos show how fit Arnautovic is. The scouts from Saudi Arabia obviously noted that too. The fact is: Arnautovic, who turned 34 in April, fits perfectly into the sheikhs’ prey scheme. As a reminder: Cristiano Ronaldo (Al-Nassr), Karim Benzema (Ittihad) and Roberto Firmino (Al Ahli) are already under contract in Saudi Arabia. Most recently, the Saudi Pro League also made headlines with coaching commitments. So Steven Gerrard (Al-Ettifaq) and Jorge Jesus (Al-Hilal) switched for headlines.

Players like Marko Arnautovic are particularly popular with internationally experienced coaches. It is quite possible that ex-West Ham coach Slaven Bilic, who wields the coaching scepter at Al-Fateh, wants to lure our Arnie into the desert.
