Arsenal target Malcom could be off to Liverpool, according to Bordeaux manager
Jocelyn Gourvennec was asked about the Brazilian starlet and touted Anfield as a potential destination
ARSENAL'S pursuit of Malcom hit a speed bump as Bordeaux's manager hinted Liverpool are in the hunt.
The Brazilian starlet, 20, is being considered as a potential replacement for Alexis Sanchez.
But when asked about interest in his player, the French outfit's boss touted Anfield as a potential destination.
Jocelyn Gourvennec said: “I can’t deny that he’s being followed by a lot of people.
“With Malcom, I go from day-to-day.
“He’s committed. He’s a bit like he was in the summer - I wouldn’t say he has been disturbed by it, that’s a bit strong, he’s not disturbed, but he is asking questions.
