Bordeaux have agreed to sell in-demand winger Malcom to Roma, ending Everton‘s reported pursuit of the Brazilian.
The 21-year-old, who scored 12 Ligue 1 goals for Bordeaux last season, had been linked with Everton and Roma’s Serie A rivals Inter Milan this summer.
A tweet from Bordeaux on Monday read: “Bordeaux can inform you that an agreement has been reached, pending the signing of administrative documents, with Roma for the transfer of Malcom.”
Roma are reportedly paying €40million to recruit the former Corinthians forward, having received a serious cash injection from the €72.5million sale of goalkeeper Alisson to Liverpool last week.
