Everton are interested in signing Malcom Transfer Market - Barcelona The player wants to stay in Catalonia for now

Barcelona won the race to sign Malcom from Bordeaux last summer, bringing him to Catalonia just when Roma believed they were going to acquire him.

Everton were also in contention for his signature last summer and they still hope to see him in blue.

According to the English press, they were willing to pay 35 million euros last summer, which wasn't far off the 41m euros fee Barcelona ended up paying.

Since moving to the Camp Nou, Malcom hasn't enjoyed much playing time and so far has just five LaLiga Santander appearances for a total of 97 minutes.

Given how little he has played, there has been talk in recent weeks of a potential exit.

There has been interest from China and from Everton.

They've been gauging the interest from his entourage, however the player wants to remain at the Blaugrana at least until the summer.

He wants to see if Ernesto Valverde will trust him more and will re-evaluate his situation after the 2018/19 season.
