Marko Arnautovic to Southampton?

Southampton are believed to have expressed interest in signing Stoke City forward Marko Arnautovic. The Austrian international is entering the final year of his contract at the Britannia Stadium.

Arnautovic, 27, has been one of the stand out performers for the Potters, who have had a decent campaign in the top flight this term.

Sources reveal that the Austrian marksman could find himself at a new club in the summer as he is reluctant to commit his future to Mark Hughes' side.

The Saints are currently heading the queue to land the former Werder Bremen star whilst Manchester United are keeping tabs on the player's situation.

Arnautovic is likely to lead the line for his national side at Euro 2016.
