There may be a few curious glances from North London over towards Anfield as Arthur Melo completes his somewhat surprise loan move to Liverpool - though Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta will perhaps not be among them.
Juventus midfielder Arthur is set to join Jurgen Klopp's squad for the remainder of the campaign after both clubs agreed on a season-long loan with no buy option included on transfer deadline day. Arthur's move ends Klopp's search for midfield reinforcements after frantically admitting earlier this week that he needed more options.
For Arthur, the switch gives him an opportunity to try and revive his stuttering career as he finally lands his move to the Premier League, months after he looked poised to join Arsenal. The Brazilian came close to sealing a loan move to the Gunners back in January, before again being linked this summer, but it is Liverpool who have swooped in to land his services.
