What Arthur Melo has been doing during injury lay-off as Liverpool midfielder shares update

Liverpool midfielder Arthur Melo has been taking lessons to improve his English while sidelined with an injury.

The Brazilian made the move to Anfield from Juventus on deadline day after midfielders Jordan Henderson and Thiago Alcantara had suffered early-season injuries.

However, things haven't gone according to plan for Arthur since his switch from Italy as he has only managed 13 minutes in a Liverpool shirt this season, which came in the closing stages of September's humiliating 4-1 defeat to Napoli. And despite using the recent international break to train with the club's under-21s side, and even feature in the Papa John's Trophy, the 26-year-old has been ruled out until 2023 with injury.
