Portugal midfielder William Carvalho is attracting attention of several top European clubs, particularly Manchester United. Believe it or not, United scouts have watched him for the eighth time this season!
The 21-year-old mid-fielder is known to be very athletic and versatile and United surely needs lot of versatility in the midfield right now. Also, given his age, he could be a long-term successor in the central midfield position, if Moyes decides to bring him to Old Trafford.
After Juan Mata joined Manchester United, Moyes did mention about arrival of other players. Maybe, Carvalho is one of them, otherwise why would United scouts watch him eight times? Carvalho's contract with Sporting Lisbon is up in 2018 and Real Madrid and Barcelona are also tracking his situation closely. However, his release clause is £37.5m which is way too high for such a young player.
If David Moyes decides to bring William Carvalho to Manchester United in the summer, he will try to negotiate a considerably cheaper deal because United have good contacts in Portugal, plus the two clubs have done business in the past where Cristiano Ronaldo and Nani joined the Red Devils.
Do you think William Carvalho is the man to transform Manchester United's midfield?
