Report: Spurs and Arsenal to be offered the same Brazilian star this summer

Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal are bitter rivals on the field, but they could be going head to head in the summer transfer market too this year.

According to AS, Barcelona are set to offer the same player to both North London clubs in the coming weeks.

Barca are said to be keen to offload Brazilian winger, Malcom, before the new season starts, as he hasn’t exactly hit the ground running in Spain.

The report suggests that Barcelona are in need of cash this transfer window in order to fund a huge move that could see Neymar return to the Camp Nou.

Malcom made 24 appearances last campaign, but a large portion of these came late in matches as a substitute.

Spurs enjoyed great success in the wide positions last season, with Lucas Moura and Heung Min Son each racking up the goals.

Spurs have been linked with a move for Malcom for some time now, predating his time at Barcelona (Telegraph).
