Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly emerged as favourites to land Bordeaux starlet Malcom ahead of Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich.
Bordeaux are said to want up to €55 million (£48.5 million) for Malcom, and manager Mauricio Pochettino has personally called the 21-year-old to discuss a move to Spurs, according to RMC Sport (h/t Tom Coast at Sport Witness).
The Brazilian has become one of the most in-demand youngsters in Europe after an impressive season in Ligue 1 with Bordeaux. Malcom has eight goals and six assists and his sparkling displays have attracted interest from around the continent.
