Juventus midfielder Arthur will undergo a medical today ahead of a season-long loan at Liverpool in a surprise deal.
The Brazilian international has emerged as a shock candidate to fill the void currently plaguing the Reds midfield as they contend with a large number of injuries to their current options in the middle of the park.
Arthur is on the verge of his move to Merseyside to help plug the gaps left by issues with the likes of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Thiago Alcantara and Curtis Jones - less than 12 months after he was linked with a switch to Arsenal on a similar temporary deal, only to see it fall through.
