Man United on the ‘frontline’ to sign Mourinho target, can make offer ‘difficult to refuse’ for selling club

Malcom’s great season so far for Bordeaux has seen the Brazilian the subject of several transfer rumours over the past few weeks. Manchester United have been the club most linked to Malcom, with Arsenal also being pulled into the picture by Brazilian claims last week.

Taking a look at potential Ligue 1 transfers for the January window, when it comes to Bordeaux, L’Equipe obviously highlight Malcom.

Bordeaux’s president Stéphane Martin has repeated several times that he has no intention of selling the player in January, and the French newspaper say Bordeaux are determined to stick to that plan.

However, it’s pointed out Manchester United are on the ‘frontline’ of clubs interested in signing the player, and the Premier League club could make an offer that’s ‘difficult to refuse’ for Bordeaux.

Malcom has nine goals and four assists already this season in France, and the 20 year old can play across the front three, but his favoured position right now seems to be off the right wing.

With Jose Mourinho likely needing to add to his squad during January, the Malcom rumours are set to continue.
