Liverpool News: Liverpool Terminating Arthur Loan Deal?



Liverpool News: English Premier League outfit Liverpool FC are reportedly not impressed with Brazilian midfielder Arthur and are thinking about terminating his loan deal.

A Gremio academy graduate, Arthur Melo started his senior team career with the Brazilian club. After settling down in the Gremio set-up, Arthur played a pivotal role in Gremio’s Copa Libertadores victory.

His consistent performances with Gremio helped him to get many luxurious contracts. Arthur finally decided to join the Spanish giants Barcelona. Despite having a good start to his Barca career, he could not fulfil his potential and was sold to Juventus in 2020.

In the next two years, Arthur spent in Turin but his performances were never consistent enough to make him a key player in the squad.

Liverpool News: Klopp unimpressed with Arthur Melo

 

According to the Italian outlet, Tuttomercatoweb Liverpool is considering terminating Arthur’s loan deal in January when they have a replacement for him.

Earlier Thiago Alacantara, Jordan Henderson, Naby Keita, Curtis Jones, and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlin suffered injuries that made Liverpool’s midfield very thin.

This forced Liverpool to look for a short-term option in the central midfield position. So they went to Turin and signed Brazilian midfielder Arthur on a season-long loan.

After signing for Liverpool, Arthur was hugely praised by the German tactician. He also asked the media to give him some time to settle into the Liverpool structure.

However, now it looks like things have changed drastically. Arthur has failed to impress German manager Jurgen Klopp so far. Things are so bad right now that Klopp has asked to ship the midfield back to Turin at the first chance they get.

Meanwhile, Arthur is also not in the plans of Juventus. Even if Arthur sees his loan deal getting cancelled, it will be very tough for him to feature again in Massimiliano Allegri’s team.

 

Liverpool paid Juventus a loan fee of £3.9 million for the services of the midfielder. The Merseyside club also has a chance to land the Brazilian on a permanent basis if they pay £32.4 million at the end of the season.

Since his loan move, Arthur played only 13 minutes in Liverpool’s 4-1 defeat against Napoli. He was an unused sub in Liverpool’s last match.

What’s Next?

Liverpool had a poor start to their season. They have gathered only nine points from their first six matches. The Reds are currently in seventh place in the table.
