Marko Arnautovic is set for the medical with Bologna, as Shanghai Port authorised his travel to Italy to complete a move to Serie A.

The Austria international returns to Italy, 11 years after his stint with Inter, and Il Corriere dello Sport reports the 32-year-old arrives in the city today and will have his medical with Sinisa Mihajlovic’s team tomorrow.

The centre-forward’s contract with Shanghai Port expires in December 2022, but the Chinese Super League side have, after lengthy negotiations, authorised his trip to conclude a transfer to Bologna.

The former West Ham, Stoke City, Weder Bremen and FC Twente star is expected by the Bologna fans, who are preparing to welcome the striker at 18.00 UK time at his hotel in Via Independenza.
