Inter have received positive signs from Ligue 1 side Bordeaux regarding the transfer of Brazilian winger Malcom according to Italian TV Channel Sky Sport Italia’s transfermarket expert Gianluca Di Marzio.

According to the report, the chances to see Malcom play for Inter next season are increasing according to unnamed sources involved in the negotiations as the Nerazzurri await Bordeaux’s response to their offer. Di Marzio reports further that the deal being discussed is a dry loan for a very high fee with an option to make the transfer permanent which becomes a forced option should Inter qualify for the Champions League with the total value of the transfer could exceed €40 million.

In conclusion Di Marzio reports that although the conclusion of the deal is not imminent the parties continue to work and are positive that the deal could be concluded soon which would see the first big signing Inter have made since Luciano Spalletti took over the reigns at the club just over a year ago.
