Napoli have emerged as one of the most active clubs in the market in the final days of the summer transfer window. Following the high-profile acquisition of Romelu Lukaku, the Campanian side is now turning its attention to bolstering its midfield options.
Recent reports from Gianluca Di Marzio suggest that Napoli has made initial inquiries about Arthur, the Brazilian midfielder currently contracted to Juventus. The club is considering Arthur as a potential alternative to Stanislav Lobotka in the midfield role.
Arthur, who spent the previous season on loan at Fiorentina, has returned to Juventus but finds himself on the fringes of Thiago Motta’s plans. This situation has opened the door for a potential move, with Napoli now expressing interest.
The Partenopei have initiated preliminary contacts with Juventus to explore the possibility of a transfer. One of the key aspects under discussion is Arthur’s salary, with both clubs working to find a mutually agreeable solution.
This interest in Arthur comes as Napoli looks to add depth and quality to their midfield. The Brazilian’s technical skills and passing ability could provide valuable options for the team as they compete on multiple fronts this season.
As the transfer window nears its conclusion, it remains to be seen whether Napoli’s initial inquiry will develop into a concrete offer. The coming days will be crucial in determining if Arthur will swap Turin for Naples and join the defending Serie A champions.
