Real Madrid and Barcelona are monitoring William Carvalho's situation at Sporting Lisbon.
Both Spanish giants have concerns about their midfield options and have been tracking Carvalho's stunning progress this season.

Carvalho penned new terms with Sporting last year, which included a buyout clause of €45 million.
