Bordeaux starlet Malcom is the next big thing to come out of Ligue 1. Check out his best goals and assists from the 2017-18 season.
Roma have won the race to sign highly coveted winger Malcom from Bordeaux, the clubs announced on Monday.
After links to Arsenal and Tottenham in January, the 21-year-old Brazilian had also drawn reported interest from Bayern Munich. In recent months, he had made no secret of his ambition to further his career elsewhere.
