On September 30th, Malcolm's agent calmly refuted the Egyptian media's speculation that Malcolm, the foreign aid of the Chinese Super League's Wuhan Three Towns team, was about to be transferred to the Cairo National Salon in Egypt. He not only denied Malcolm's contact with any Egyptian salon, but also emphasized that "Malcolm is currently in a salon he is very satisfied with."
Recently, Egyptian media claimed that Malcolm had been in advanced talks with Cairo National Salon about a transfer. However, this rumor was quickly dismissed by Malcom's agent, Camargo. In an interview with the media, Camargo said: "Are the talks between Cairo National and Malcom about to reach an agreement? No, that is not the case, we are not in talks with any Egyptian salon at the moment. Malcolm is very content in China. I can assure you that he is very happy here. I don't know how such news gets out in Egypt! But it is false information and we are really not in talks with any Egyptian team right now."
Camargo also revealed that Malcolm is currently a non-saleable item for Wuhan Sanzhen Saloon. He said, "His salon (Wuhan Sanzhen) will not agree to sell him." Camargo also refused to give a positive response to the "hypothetical" question posed by the media. He said, "If I answer a similar question, it may have a negative impact on Malcolm. I hope he can help his Salon team to achieve good results in the Chinese Super League, even the championship. At the same time, he will strive for the title of top scorer."
So far, Malcolm has appeared in 14 Chinese Super League matches for Wuhan Sanzhen this season, starting 9 of them and temporarily leading the Chinese Super League table with 16 goals. However, due to injuries and other factors, he has been unable to play in consecutive matches, and Sanzhen suffered their first loss in the Chinese Super League in his absence. Various rumors may have been sparked based on his absence.
