During the morning of this Sunday, the rumor circulated in Italy that Arthur would no longer put on the Barça shirt and that he would not even finish the season training with the Barça first team. However, Barça club sources denied such a possibility. Arthur will end the season and Pjanic at Juventus despite the fact that the barter is already confirmed and the Brazilian will be a bianconero; and the Bosnian, Barca for some amounts to confirm that the accounts of the clubs will balance.
Another matter will be the minutes Arthur has. The reappearance of Sergi Roberto and the recovery of De Jong will make him the sixth or seventh Barça midfielder, behind Busquets, Rakitic, Vidal, the same De Jong and Sergi Roberto (who can play as an insider), plus Riqui Puig. It will also be necessary to see the Brazilian's predisposition after Barça has insisted on transferring him and not giving him the opportunity, as Arthur wanted, of a third year at Barça. His performance was not as expected and the club, which considered him an asset and a player with a market, has decided to transfer him.
