Arsenal Transfer News: Bayern Munich Want Malcom in Latest Rumours

Bayern Munich are reportedly confident of beating Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur to the signing of Bordeaux forward Malcom.

According to Tom Hopkinson of the Sunday People (h/t the Sunday Mirror), the German giants are confident of winning the race for the Brazilian, who was strongly linked with a move to both north London clubs in the January transfer window.

Hopkinson's piece suggested Bayern are considering long-term replacements for their evergreen wingers Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery and have subsequently identified Malcom as a target.

Per Hopkinson, Bordeaux opted against selling Malcom to either Arsenal or Spurs mid-season as they had been struggling for form in Ligue 1.
