(Reuters) - Manuel Pellegrini believes forward Marko Arnautovic is "happy" at West Ham United despite reports linking him with a move away and has urged the Austrian to prove it with his performances.

Arnautovic told Austrian newspaper Kurier last week he wanted "to compete with the very best", while his brother and agent Danijel said the 29-year-old must "play for a top team" to fulfill his potential.
