£23m bid rejected for Sporting Lisbon youngster
Arsenal have joined the chase for Chelsea target William Carvalho, but have seen an opening offer of £23m for the youngster rejected by his club Sporting Lisbon, according to Portuguese newspaper O Jogo.
With a proposed move for Sami Khedira appearing to fall through, Carvalho could now be Arsene Wenger’s top target to come in in midfield, and the player has become widely regarded as one of the most promising up-and-coming talents in Europe.
Still, it could take an offer of around £35m for Arsenal to sign him, with Sporting not willing to let him leave for less than his release clause.
