Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal are the strongest option for Juventus midfielder Arthur Melo, according to MundoDeportivo.
The Spanish news publication has claimed that Arsenal are interested in signing Arthur from Juventus in the summer transfer window.
AS Roma, Gremio and Barcelona are also interested in the Brazil international midfielder, but Arsenal are reportedly the ‘strongest option on the table’ for the 25-year-old, described as “a sensational player” by former Real Madrid and Italy forward Antonio Cassano in Calciomercato in March 2022.
Could Arthur Melo join Arsenal from Juventus?
In our view, Arsenal could be able to sign Arthur from Juventus in the summer transfer window.
MundoDeportivo have reported that Arsenal wanted to sign the Brazilian star in the January transfer window, but an agreement could not be reached.
Juventus are now willing to offload the former Barcelona player, who himself is ready to leave the Serie A club.
So, it seems that all Arsenal need to do is strike a deal with Juventus.
Now, of course, the finances will play an important role in the transfer.
We do not think that Arsenal should pay over the odds for Arthur, especially as they have signed Oleksandr Zinchenko from Manchester City already in the summer transfer window.
