According to Sky Sports, Barcelona and Juventus have already agreed to leave Arthur from the Campo Nou for about 80 million euros, although the Brazilian midfielder, for now, remains firm in his desire to continue under Setien next season. Despite having yet to convince the 23-year-old international, Juve is willing to make an economic effort and offer him five million wages to finish taking the plunge.
According to Sky, this operation would bring more consequences since, if this movement curdles, it would be valued at 70 million fixed plus five in variables to Pjanic, a Blaugrana goal, so it would be an exchange. Barça's sports management wants the Bosnian to renew midfield and partner with De Jong. Barça do not want to pay more than that figure for Pjanic, since he is 30 years old, but Juve understands that the player is not worth less than Arthur.
