Brazil star Malcom is ready to snub Tottenham to join Arsenal, according to reports.
The Bordeaux midfielder is wanted by a host of clubs including the North London duo and Manchester United.
But reports in Brazil claim both clubs have met with the 20-year-old’s agent and the preferred choice is at the Emirates.
It is suggested that a deal will be struck between the clubs if the Gunners sell Alexis Sanchez to Manchester City this month.
And the price could be as much as £44million to land the former Corinthians star.
But Wenger played down talk of a move saying: “He is a good player but nothing is happening. We are not on that case at the moment.”

Arsene Wenger seems resigned to losing Alexis Sanchez and will need a replacement to appease the already-angry fans.
Malcom has hit seven league goals in 18 appearances this season and dropped a huge hint about his future on social media.
The youngster posted a picture of himself learning English on Instagram saying: “Allez, come on.”
Despite Malcom’s stand out performances this term, Bordeaux are just two points above the drop zone in Ligue 1.
