Total Barça-Juventus agreement by Arthur and Pjanic, according to La SER

Barça and Juventus have reached an agreement for Arthur Melo to land on Juventus and Miralem Pjanic signed for Barça, according to sources very close to Arthur. The last remaining pitfall, Arthur's, has not yet been resolved, but it is on its way. The operation is almost outlined, but the yes of the player who expects an irrefutable offer in what affects the sports project and the economic one is lacking. .

“Only the signatures are missing”, they assure from the environment of Arthur, who will receive a notable increase in salary in Italy. The operation is valued at a figure close to 80 million euros and Barça will sign Pjanic for 70, leaving a profit of 10 million for the Catalans. This will allow Barcelona to get a large part of the income it needed to close the financial year in the expected numbers, since it will count the amount received by Arthur and will amortize (divide) in several years the signing of Pjanic.

Arthur was not a priority

Arthur had agreed a contract improvement at the start of the third season as a Barça player since he signed. Barça informed him that they would not raise his salary and urged him to find a way out, since there is “overbooking” in their position and it is not a priority. Yes it is to sign a striker, but they do not know in the Barça club whether they will be able to undertake this operation.

The Catalan player was in favor of staying in Barcelona while, according to SER, his family was betting on leaving. Finally Arthur has changed his initial decision, which seemed immovable and agrees to sit down and listen to the Italian team, which offers him a notable salary improvement in addition to a more favorable tax regime. In addition, Barça has made him see that it is not essential.
