The 21 year old midfielder signed a six year contract with FC Barcelona in March 2018, as the Catalan club reached an agreement with Grêmio for an initial transfer fee of €31 million plus €9 million in added variables.
Arthur attracted Barcelona's attention with his versatility in the midfield area as he usually plays in the central midfield position, but can also play as a central defensive midfielder or as an attacking midfielder. His versatile playing style will enable Valverde deploy him in the midfield according to the ongoing scenario of a game.
He featured in all 3 of Barcelona's pre-season games, and also scored a goal in the first game against Tottenham. He is expected to feature in the Spanish Super Cup tie in a traditional 4-3-3 formation, either as a LCM or RCM.
