Juventus is set to end its relationship with midfielder Arthur Melo, following a six-year stint that included four loan spells. Sky Sport reports the club is working towards formally terminating his contract, which runs until June 2027. Arthur, who joined Juventus from Barcelona for around €80 million in 2020, struggled to find a permanent role. His recent loan at Gremio was his most productive period, but the Brazilian club could not meet Juventus' asking price to sign him permanently. With no clear options for another loan, both parties are moving to conclude their agreement.
