Werder Bremen Striker Marko Arnautovic Returns To Austria Squad For Euro 2012

Austria coach Dietmar Constantini has decided to include highly rated attacker Marko Arnautovic in his 23-man squad for the upcoming Euro 2012 qualifiers against Azerbaijan on October 8 and Belgium four days later.

Bremen forward Arnautovic has made five appearances for Austria so far, but hadn't received a call-up since the 2-1 World Cup qualifying win against Romania on April 1, 2009.

Manuel Ortlechner and Bayern Munich starlet David Alaba are missing with ankle injuries, while Umit Korkmaz and Christoph Leitgeb have both been left out for tactical reasons.

Austria started their Euro 2012 qualifying campaign with a 2-0 win against Kazakhstan and they'll be looking to add six more points to their tally in October.
