Bordeaux could allow Arsenal target Malcom to leave this month if they receive a huge offer for the winger, it has been claimed.

The Gunners have identified Malcom as a possible replacement for Alexis Sanchez, who is reportedly close to joining Manchester United this month.




Arsenal’s hierarchy have seemingly discussed the possibility of signing the 20-year-old in this month's transfer window with their Bordeaux counterparts, with the Ligue 1 outfit insisting that that they were not prepared to part ways with the youngster this month.

However, according to French sports daily L’Equipe, Bordeaux could be tempted to sell Malcom in the current transfer window if they receive a huge offer for the starlet.
 


Arsenal are seemingly prepared to offer €50m to Bordeaux for Malcom, who has also been linked with Manchester United.
