What’s he said?
Bordeaux star Malcom has admitted he would relish the chance to fulfil his "dream" of playing in the Premier League amid interest from Arsenal and Tottenham.

The Brazilian has seen both north London clubs closely linked with an approach in recent weeks, with a transfer possible as early as this current transfer window.

For their part, Bordeaux have played down the talk, insisting there has been no official contact for their gem.

But Malcom confessed that he would love to star in the English top flight while refusing to confirm his future in Ligue 1.

"I don't know [if I will go]. If I do leave, that would be fine," he explained to reporters after Bordeaux's 1-0 defeat of Nantes on Saturday.

"I will be grateful to Bordeaux, that's life. If I have to stay I will, and I will do my job. It is true that England is a dream for every player."

Bordeaux director Nicolas de Tavernost, meanwhile, underlined his club's desire to keep Malcom until the end of the season.

"We don't want him to go, he will be at Bordeaux for the second half of the season," the businessman said.

"We think he could leave this summer if the club find the right offer, but right now we need him."

Goal understands that Arsenal have pulled out of the race to sign Malcom in the January window, although would be willing to discuss a transfer in the summer.

Arsene Wenger's side are not willing to pay the French club's £44 million asking price for Malcom but do remain confident they could strike a deal at the end of the season.

The Gunners have prioritised the signings of Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, with both players having now agreed personal terms, and believe that the experience the duo possess can push them further up the Premier League table in the

That video looks to me like a player that would happily leave now.

I'm sure his chairman has other ideas though.

More like would do the dirty and allow him to join chavs :( lol :)
Structurally the Chavs are in a bit of a mess; imagine trudging down the high street to find your Wimpey closed and a sign saying 'looking for new management'. You probably wouldn't wait around for said new management to be appointed. Not if you were hungry

The Wimpy in Cheshunt has had the same staff for 40 years now, one of the birds working there hasn't ever smiled.

I wonder if the transfer is agreed upon during this window if we will announce it immediately, even if he's not joining till the summer?

Tottenham are interested in Bordeaux's 20-year-old Brazilian attacker Malcom, but want to be the only bidders to avoid his value rising. (Football London)

Not sure even Levy can pull that off

There's a section of our own fans that I think will never rate Son that highly.


Always loved the guy, he can have some off moments when things just don't go right but then bang he gets a worldy.

Saw the youtube vids when we signed him. He delivers. Plus he is improving. Mr 100%
