Betis seek to renew Carvalho, wanted in Portugal and England

Manuel Pellegrini's Real Betis are one of the great sensations so far this season. Despite their recent dip in form, which has seen them drop down the La Liga table and be eliminated from the Europa League in the last 16, it has not dampened a great season.

Currently, the Green and Whites see the Copa del Rey final, which is scheduled for 23 April, as the main attraction for the rest of the season, as well as finishing as high up the league table as possible. One of the first team players who has developed the most this season has been William Carvalho.

His performance has been progressively increasing and he has earned a contract renewal. The Portuguese player's current contract expires in 2023 and, according to 'Mundo Deportivo', the club are already in talks to extend it.

Furthermore, this work by the club is also due to the interest of other teams in acquiring the Portuguese. Both Sporting CP, his former club, and Benfica have enquired about him, as well as several Premier League clubs, as the aforementioned media outlet pointed out.
