Arsenal failed with major offer for Bordeaux attacker Malcom in January

Arsenal failed with a major offer for Bordeaux attacker Malcom in January.

BILD says Arsenal had a £37.5million offer for Bordeaux winger Malcom rejected in during the winter market.

The Brazilian has long been a transfer target for under-fire Gunners boss Arsene Wenger.

But the player's club stood firm, insisting he would not be sold at any price.

Arsenal eventually signed Henrikh Mkhitaryan in a swap deal that saw Alexis Sanchez move to Manchester United.
