Arthur left Grêmio in June due to financial disagreements, with the club and player unable to come to an agreement over his salary. The midfielder had initially requested a salary of R$ 2.5 million, while the club offered R$ 1.5 million. As a result, Arthur returned to Juventus in July, where he is now negotiating a contract termination.
Corinthians had shown interest in Arthur after his departure from Grêmio, with executive Marcelo Paz confirming the club's desire to sign the midfielder in July. However, due to transfer bans, the club asked Arthur to wait for a resolution to the situation. The midfielder's contract with Juventus expires in June 2027.
Arthur was initially reported to be leaving Juventus by Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, and the club has now given the green light to the contract termination talks. The midfielder won the Copa do Brasil and Libertadores with Grêmio before being sold to Barcelona in 2018, and was later purchased by Juventus in June 2020.
