Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal are reportedly interested in Barcelona winger Malcom.

According to Mundo Deportivo, Malcom’s agent will hold discussions with Barcelona over the future of the 22-year-old winger amid interest from Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal.

It has been reported by Mundo Deportivo that Arsenal and Tottenham are interested in signing Malcom from Spanish and European giants Barcelona in the summer transfer window.

The report has claimed that the two North London clubs have been most in contact with Barcelona, but Malcom wants to stay at Camp Nou.

The Brazilian winger does not mind playing for another season for Barca as he is confident that he can establish himself in the starting lineup, but his agent, Luis Fernando Menez Garcia, will travel to Barcelona to hold talks, according to the report.

Stats

Malcom joined Barcelona from French club Bordeaux in the summer of 2018 for a transfer fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £36.5 million.

The winger made six starts and nine substitute appearances in La Liga for Barca this past season, scoring one goal and providing two assists in the process, and played just 40 minutes in the Champions League, according to WhoScored.
