Carvalho has been reported as a transfer target for a number of big Premier League clubs this summer, including Arsenal and Manchester United, but time is running out for the Portuguese international to secure a move away from Lisbon. The club are reportedly willing to part with their most prized asset for a fee of 30 million Euros, but it would appear that Arsenal are not willing to match this price – potentially focusing their attention on a striker.
