Roma Initiates Talks for Juventus Midfielder Arthur

Start

Roma have expressed interest in acquiring Juventus midfielder Arthur and has taken the first steps to explore a potential transfer. The Brazilian player, who had a successful loan spell at Fiorentina last season in a defensive midfield role, has caught the attention of the Giallorossi.

Gazzetta dello Sport report how Roma are  looking to strengthen their midfield options, with Arthur being considered as a deep-lying midfielder. While the club is close to securing Enzo Le Fee, with only a €2 million gap remaining in negotiations with Rennes, they are also exploring other options. Gabriel Sara is being eyed as a box-to-box midfielder alternative.

The initial contact has been made with Arthur’s representatives, but Roma faces competition from Premier League clubs Newcastle United and Everton, who have also shown interest in the player. Given Arthur’s current contract with Juventus, which runs until 2026, and his high valuation by the Bianconeri, Roma is considering a loan move for the midfielder.

This potential transfer aligns with Roma’s efforts to bolster their squad for the upcoming season, as they continue to pursue multiple targets to improve their midfield options.
