Girona Front-runners to Sign Former Barcelona Midfielder
Girona Looking to Strengthen Squad for European Push
Girona is determined to bolster their squad for the upcoming season as they set their sights on a return to European football. Despite their recent Champions League exit, the team is motivated to climb the La Liga table from their current 8th position.
Focus on La Liga for Girona
After facing challenges balancing domestic and European competitions this season, Girona is now fully focused on their La Liga campaign. Head coach Michel Sanchez and sporting director Quique Carcel are keen on adding one more player to the squad, with a midfielder being their top priority.
Girona Pursuing Juventus Midfielder Arthur Melo
Girona has been struggling to replace Aleix Garcia, who departed for Bayer Leverkusen last summer. Reports from Relevo suggest that the club is eyeing Juventus midfielder Arthur Melo to fill this void. Arthur, who is not part of Thiago Motta’s plans at Juventus, has yet to feature for the team this season, making a move away likely.
Competition for Arthur Melo’s Signature
While Girona is leading the race to sign Arthur Melo, they face competition from Santos, who are also interested in the midfielder. Real Betis had shown interest in the Brazilian as well, but they have pulled out of the race for now. Arthur’s previous experience in Spanish football during his time at Barcelona could make Girona an attractive destination for him.
Potential Return to Catalonia for Arthur Melo
If Arthur Melo does make the move to Girona, it could be a beneficial arrangement for both the player and the club. With Girona’s ambitions of returning to European competitions, adding a player of Arthur’s caliber could significantly strengthen their squad for the challenges ahead.
