Jurgen Klopp has confirmed Arthur Melo will remain with Liverpool for the entirety of the season.
The Reds boss was forced to make a move for the Juventus midfielder, as the club’s injury crisis left them with a dearth of options in the middle of the park. Klopp had insisted that his side would avoid bringing in new players in the final weeks of the window until accepting further reinforcements were required.
A deadline day move for Arthur came somewhat out of the blue, with Liverpool managing to strike an agreement to bring the Brazilian international to Anfield on a season-long loan. However, with a cruel tinge of irony, the signing that was made to combat injuries has seen his time in English football stunted by them.
