Juventus manager Maurizio Sarri is, according to Sky Sports Italy, keen to build a new-look midfield around the passing ability of the 23-year-old who joined Barcelona from Gremio two years ago. Barcelona, meanwhile, want Miralem Pljanic to move in the opposite direction but are haggling over the transfer fee. Juvenuts believe the 30-year-old is worth £63.4m but Sky Italy report that Barcelona do not feel he is worth just £9m less than Arthur.
