Liverpool FC is recovering ground after a bad start of the tournament, where for now in the Premier League, they are not in the zone of European competitions, that is why the coach Jürgen Klopp needs to use all his available players, making every week a difficult task in the creation of the starting eleven, because he knows that overloads and injuries plague his team.

Such is the case of Brazil international Arthur Melo, who will undergo surgery due to a muscular problem and will be out of the club for at least three to four months, thus missing the rest of 2022, as revealed by The Athletic. Klopp had said that the midfielder's exit from the squad was due to a muscular problem, and that they had to wait for a medical assessment.

Jürgen Klopp's first major failure of the season confirmed

The ordeal for the former Juventus and FC Barcelona player does not stop, as injuries have been a recurring headache for Liverpool, who after signing him thought to have a reference player on the field, but if the level has been close to what was expected. Melo has even played for the club's Under-23s, where he had just one game, before suffering a setback.

A depressing 13 minutes in Liverpool's first-team squad in the UEFA Champions League Group A opener against Napoli of Italy is all that Arthur, a 26-year-old who arrived at Anfield with high expectations in the close transfer window, has given so far. The Brazilian youth academy graduate from Gremio had only just joined his fourth professional club in a career.

Arthur Melo is out

Melo, who is on loan from the Turin outfit, has left such a bad impression on the Reds' board that they are considering breaking the loan deal that ties him to Liverpool until June 2023. In addition, Arthur has been ruled out of playing for Brazil at the Qatar 2022 World Cup, where they share Group G with Europe's Serbia and Switzerland, plus Cameroon.
