Two months ago, Gazzetta dello Sport said Everton have initiated contact to sign Arthur Melo. Earlier this week, we covered claims from Italy that Newcastle United have joined the Toffees in chasing the Juventus player.
Arthur’s agent Federico Pastorello has already insisted that he has to find a solution for his client this summer.
Newcastle and Everton interest in the 27-year-old is backed up by Marca, who then provide the latest on this case.
After a disappointing loan spell at Liverpool during the 2022/23 season, Arthur was able to impress during his temporary spell at Fiorentina last season. This has convinced a few clubs to try to acquire his signature.
It’s claimed Sean Dyche’s side have been keeping a close eye on his situation, while the Magpies have asked about the Brazilian.
Marca claim this is their own information. They have found out the player’s priority would be return to the Premier League, while he won’t mind staying in Serie A, where Napoli and AS Roma are his suitors.
New Juve manager Thiago Motta wants to look at his compatriot during pre-season training. Arthur ‘doesn’t want to wait’ as the report claims he wants to sort out his future ‘as soon as possible’.
His desire is to join a club where he can enjoy regular game time and feel important, and whether that’ll be at Newcastle, Everton or another club needs to be seen.
There’s no mention of any of the interested clubs possibly making an offer to either Arthur or the Turin club.
