Malcom: Roma agree deal to sign Bordeaux winger
Last updated on .From the section European Football
Roma have agreed a deal to sign Brazilian winger Malcom from Bordeaux for a reported £32m fee.
The 21-year-old had been linked with a move to the Premier League, with Arsenal, Everton and Tottenham said to be interested in signing him.
But he will now move to Serie A pending a medical and agreeing personal terms.
Roma, who finished third in the league last season, have made 12 signings so far this summer, but sold goalkeeper Alisson to Liverpool for £66.8m.
They also sold midfielder Radja Nainggolan to rivals Inter Milan for £21m, plus two players.
Among their high-profile recruits are Argentine midfielder Javier Pastore from Paris St-Germain, and Dutch teenager Justin Kluivert from Ajax.

Malcom. Richarlison. I am loving that Premier League inflation!
Nicely done!
Most likely to Liverpool...
Another top article from the gullible BBC, a day before Malcom actually signs for Barcelona.
£64 m easily.
Good answer but we've already had that one @2 & @3.
Would you like to try again?
Daniel 'Mr Football' Levy's audacious £19.99 bid was sadly rejected.
