French newspaper Le 10 Sport has learned that Monaco are showing interest in Sporting Lisbon starlet William Carvalho.
The Principality club boss Claudio Ranieri plans to add a powerful midfielder to his ranks in the summer and the Portugal international appears to be one of his primary targets.
With summer signings Joao Moutinho and James Rodriguez proving their worth in French Ligue 1, the French giants have continued to follow players from Portuguese Primeira Liga, with Braga’s Rafa Silva and William Carvalho currently on their radar.
Monaco could face a stiff competition for the Sporting star given that Manchester United are determined to lure him to Old Trafford at the end of the current campaign.
William Carvalho, 21, has largely impressed this season, scoring 3 goals in 23 league outings for the Lions.
Sporting play host to Vitoria Guimaraes next weekend and the Estadio Jose Alvalade outfit are 2/5 favourites to emerge victorious.
