William, who has been consistently linked with Arsenal, has been in superb form for the Lisbon club in the continental competition.




The Portugal international has hit a total of 216 passes, of which 195 have been successful, a success rate of over 90 per cent.

 


William has also run the most of Sporting Lisbon's midfielders, covering a total of 47.756 kilometres.

The 22-year-old has appeared in all the Portuguese club's four Champions League games so far this season, providing one assist.
