Juventus midfielder Arthur bids farewell to the Italian giants as he prepares to complete a season-long loan move to Liverpool.

Juventus midfielder Arthur has said his goodbyes to the Old Lady as he prepares to complete a deadline-day transfer to Liverpool.

The 26-year-old is understood to have completed his medical and signed his terms at Anfield, where he will join on a season-long loan with no option or obligation to buy.

Should the terms of the deal stay as they are, Arthur would return to Juventus for the 2023-24 season, as his deal with the Old Lady is not due to expire until 2025.

However, that did not stop the former Barcelona man from bidding farewell to Massimiliano Allegri's side on social media, posting "Grazie mille" which translates to "A thousand thanks".

The post was accompanied by a short video of some of his memorable moments in a Juventus shirt since his arrival in 2020 as part of a swap deal with Miralem Pjanic.

Arthur has only managed one goal and one assist in 63 appearances for the Old Lady over the past two seasons, winning one Coppa Italia and one Supercoppa Italiana crown in the process.

The Brazil international will provide midfield cover while Jordan Henderson, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Thiago Alcantara and Naby Keita recover from injuries, with the former picking up a hamstring issue against Newcastle United in midweek.
