Arsenal will reportedly step up their interest in Bordeaux forward Malcom this week with an offer of £35 million.
According to Rob Draper of the Mail on Sunday, Alexis Sanchez appears set to leave the club in the January window, with Manchester United and Manchester City keen to get him on board.
The Gunners are said to have lined up Malcom as a potential replacement, and Draper's report suggested they will make an offer for the 20-year-old in the coming days. While Arsenal will reportedly make a £35 million bid, Bordeaux are said to be keen to hold out for £45 million.
