Marko Arnautovic stated that he will remain at West Ham after turning down a bid from Guangzhou Evergrande.

“I am a professional footballer and the only thing I know in life is to play football. It is clear that London and West Ham feels like home and I hope the West Ham fans have always seen that. The club has pointed my career in the right direction since I joined and therefore I want to put the offers aside, help the club to climb as high as possible in the table and try to win the Cup," wrote Arnautovic on Instagram.

Manuel Pellegrini had dropped Arnautovic following a perceived lack of effort after the initial bid.

West Ham are also reportedly looking to add Maxi Gomez from Celta Vigo.
