Marko Arnautovic has criticised the European media following his move to Chinese club Shanghai SIPG from EPL side West Ham
The HinduMarko Arnautovic insists he always gives his all and criticised the European media for suggesting otherwise. Arnautovic left West Ham United on Monday, joining Chinese Super League champions Shanghai SIPG for a reported fee of £22million The 30-year-old only signed a new five-year deal at London Stadium in January, with West Ham handing Arnautovic the bumper contract after he initially submitted a transfer request amid interest from a then unnamed Chinese side. Arnautovic is joining former Chelsea playmaker Oscar at SIPG - which currently sits third in the Chinese Super League - while ex-Porto star Hulk is also at the club. "I feel they are very good people who really want to help me integrate into the team, and I feel very welcome," said Arnautovic, who will wear the number seven jersey previously taken by SIPG's record goalscorer Wu Lei, now at Espanyol. "Because of this meaning, I feel more pressure," Arnautovic responded when asked if he would be able to fill the void left by SIPG's former star winger.
