Barcelona transfer news: Arthur keen to stay in Spain despite Juventus move rumours
Spanish media reports had linked the Serie A champions with a transfer bid for the 23-year-old
Barcelona midfielder Arthur Melo insists he is keen to stay at the Catalan club despite being linked to a move to Juventus, the Brazil international said on Wednesday.
"The interest of great clubs is flattering, but I have only one thing in mind: playing here for many years," was quoted as saying in statement by Italy's La Gazzetta dello Sport.
Spanish media reports had linked the Serie A champions with a transfer bid for the 23-year-old.
Arthur, who has 20 caps for Brazil, joined Barca in 2018 from Gremio and helped the Spanish side win their 26th league title.
