Brighton and Hove Albion midfielder Steve Sidwell played with West Ham United winger Marko Arnautovic at Stoke City.
Sidwell played with Arnautovic at Premier League Stoke City, and believes that the Austria international winger can go right to the top.
“We are all big fans of him,” said Sidwell about Arnautovic on The Friday Football Social show on BBC Radio 5live last Friday evening (7pm, September 22, 2017). “We can talk about him all day. He has got so much talent. He can go right to the top.”
Arnautovic was on the books of Stoke from 2013 until the summer of 2017 when he moved to West Ham.
According to The Guardian, the Hammers paid the Potters an initial transfer fee of £20 million plus £5m in potential add-ons.
The Austria international was a success during his spell at Stoke and knows the Premier League inside out.
While West Ham fans should be optimistic that the former Werder Bremen star will be a success at the London Stadium, the problem is that he is quite inconsistent.
The former FC Twente winger scored six goals and provided five assists in 32 Premier League appearances for Stoke last season.
