"Arsenal" and "Tottenham" chase Malcolm: I wanted to leave

In January, it was announced that London's "Arsenal" and "Tottenham" were very interested in Bordeaux's talent Malcom. Although neither team managed to acquire the Brazilian player competing in France, the player himself revealed that he wanted to leave. "I will tell the truth - I wanted to leave. My dream is to progress in my career. I spoke to the team's president (ed. note Stephane Martin) and he told me he knew it was my dream, but he also said he needed me. I then told him that he could trust me until the end of the season. I promised that I would do everything to bring Bordeaux to the top of Ligue 1," said Malcom. The player scored eight goals in Ligue 1 this season, but only scored once since December. Bordeaux is currently in eighth place with 32 points, but they are only two points away from sixth place.
