Liverpool bid farewell to Arthur Melo

After arriving at Liverpool on loan from Juventus last summer, Arthur Melo has not been able to convince Jurgen Klopp. Having played just once for the Reds, not in the Premier League, his adventure in England has been somewhat of a flop.

As a result, the Brazilian will return to Juventus at the end of the season. His current coach Jurgen Klopp dedicated a few words to him at a press conference.

"I would also like to wish Arthur Melo well as his loan period comes to an end. Circumstances meant Arthur was not able to play as much as he would have liked but his professionalism and ability were clear to all who worked with him," the German said.

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson also spoke about the 26-year-old: "On behalf of all the players I would like to wish Arthur Melo the best of luck for whatever comes next in his career.

"I mention luck because it's the one thing he needs. Arthur is an outstanding footballer and that has been very clear in the short time he's been with us. Hopefully the platform he has given himself since coming back from injury will serve him well in the years to come."
