The Brazilian has impressed the French crowd since making a switch from Corinthians back in 2016. The talented midfielder has recorded direct involvement in 9 goals for his side this season alone.
According to The Sun, the Red Devils are one of the prime candidates looking to swoop the youngster away, amid interest from Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur.
Further, it was also reported that Malcom was monitored by the United scouts during the French side’s 1-1 draw with Marseille last Sunday.
The Brazilian has also hinted at a move to the Premier League in the past, and with huge interest coming in from the elites of England, the transfer may well take place in the near future.
But despite the interest from multiple English clubs, Jose Mourinho’s side seem favourites to sign the Bordeaux starlet at present.
However, the 20-year-old is currently tied to a contract at the Nouveau Stade de Bordeaux till 2021, and the club hardly looks in a hurry to cash in on him.
