Arthur Hernique Ramos Is Latest Brazil Star On Barcelona’s Radar

Published on:

Spanish giants Barcelona are monitoring young Brazilian Arthur Melo with a view to land the midfielder at the Camp Nou, according to local media reports.

The 21-year-old has been an influential part of the Gremio team that this week earned a berth in the final of the Copa Libertadores, South America’s top club competition.

He was rewarded by being called up to Brazil’s national squad for World Cup qualifiers against Bolivia and Chile last month.

“His form in the Copa Libertadores has been attracting the attention of clubs around the world,” the Gazetta Esportiva newspaper said of Barcelona’s reported interest. “He has good vision and a refined technique.”

Last month, Arthur signed a new contract with Gremio that expires in December 2021 and includes a 50 million-euro buyout clause.
