Girona FC is not going through its best moment in LaLiga, immersed in a negative streak that began with the new year. The demanding participation in the Champions League has taken its toll on the team led by Míchel, who seems far from the level shown last season. This is compounded by the loss of key players in the summer, which has weakened their squad and affected their performance.

To turn the situation around, the club bet on the winter transfer market with the signing of Arthur Melo, a midfielder loaned from Juventus. Although the Brazilian struggled to settle in, in recent matchdays, he has taken on a leading role, starting in the last two games. His ability to provide balance and clarity to the game has not gone unnoticed, even if the results do not yet reflect this.

Figures are being calculated to sign him, but it will be complicated and expensive

The sports management is already considering the possibility of acquiring the player permanently, but the figures do not favor this decision. Girona took on half of his high annual salary and paid close to a million between the loan and variables. His wage remains a significant obstacle, and there is no purchase option in the agreement with Juventus, with whom he is contracted until 2027.

The player's entourage is open to staying, but the economic conditions will not be easy to negotiate. Nevertheless, at Montilivi, they believe that if Arthur regains his best form, his signing could be more feasible than expected. The player's willingness will be crucial.
