It’s finally happened, but the Italian media believe Arsenal are no longer interested in the signing of Arthur from Juventus.
For those who follow the transfer rumours surrounding the Gunners, you will be sorely aware of the number of articles published by outlets regarding the London club’s efforts last January to sign the Brazilian.
Juventus never managed to find an agreement with Arsenal regarding the loan of the player, since they wanted to get him off their books, and there was hope something could be rekindled this summer.
That never really happened, as Mikel Arteta and Edu focused their efforts elsewhere, which has worked wonders, since the Gunners have now won their first three games of the season.
That’s a stark contrast to what happened last season when they lost their first three fixtures, and it appears they have now walked away from Arthur.
TuttoMercatoWeb, looking at the situation surrounding some of the players at Juventus, write that Arsenal ‘seem to have definitely gone out of the race’ for the midfielder ‘barring sensational and unexpected relaunches’.
That will probably be a sigh of relief for some of the Emirates faithful, who clearly have their eyes and hearts set on other targets for their beloved club, such as Youri Tielemans.
