Brazilian winger Malcom has joined Zenit St Petersburg from Barcelona in a 40m euro (£36.5m) deal.

The 22-year-old scored four goals in 24 appearances for the La Liga champions last season, having joined in a "dream come true" from Bordeaux last year.

His transfer to the Russian Premier League leaders also includes an extra 5m euro (£4.6m) in variables.

Malcom was first called up to the Brazil national team in 2018 but has yet to make his senior debut.
