The Spanish transfer window closed on Friday, August 31, but the most dramatic move of the summer happened more than a month ago.
In late July, Malcom's transfer saga seemed to have come to an end when Bordeaux and Roma both announced a deal worth £30 million had been agreed. The 21-year-old winger packed his bags, called one of his close friends and team-mate, Jonathan Cafu, and headed straight to the airport to take a flight on a private jet with his representative Fernando Garcia.
However, Garcia never showed up. Instead, after more than an hour, he got in touch saying Malcom should return home because "something unexpected" had come up.
