Sporting Lisbon are not interested in selling William Carvalho this month

Sporting Lisbon president Bruno de Carvalho insists he is not interested in selling William Carvalho in this month's transfer window.

 

The 21-year-old midfielder has been linked with Arsenal and Manchester United, with reports suggesting the Gunners are preparing a £12million bid.

De Carvalho rates Carvalho, who has scored two goals in 13 league appearances for Lisbon so far this season, in the 45million euros bracket.

But he insists he is not for sale in January, telling Portuguese newspaper Record: "We are not interested in the exit of this player."
