Klopp has had enough of Neymar's friend and wants him out of Liverpool

During the summer of 2018, specifically on 9 July of that year, a player called to be the natural replacement for Xavi Hernández for the next five years arrived at Camp Nou in one of the two giants of LaLiga, and although Arthur Melo convinced from the start with his quality, clarity and characteristics, it soon became clear that his attitude and his head were going to play tricks on him. As did his physique. A close friend of Neymar Junior, with whom he has had many appearances on social networks.

The Juventus midfielder, on loan at Liverpool, has ended up breaking the patience of Anfield, which brings to light the issue that leaves him humiliated. Basically, because it has been leaked that even before Melo was signed by the Reds - we insist, from Juventus on loan - there was never any intention of exercising the option to buy that was included in the deal; in other words, Anfield took Melo's inclusion as a mere injury stopgap, but never as a bet on the future in the city of the Beatles.

Now, with the benefit of hindsight, both at the legendary coliseum of the English club and at the Camp Nou, they breathe a sigh of relief at the weight that has been lifted off their shoulders (Miralem Pjanic, for whom he was swapped, was never a gain at Can Barça). In truth, in some ways Jürgen Klopp, who made the determination with the midfielder from day one, still has the problem at home, as to all intents and purposes he is still part of the 22/23 Reds squad.

It has been confirmed that the player will have to undergo surgery and will be out for 3 to 4 months, meaning he will not help Liverpool in the role he was signed for, that of filling in for the injured. And with Melo, being unimportant is not the exception, it is the dynamic. Well-known insider Ben Jacobs has claimed on social media that "the €37.5m buyout option was just a 'gift' in negotiations with Juventus".

Klopp is no longer counting on Arthur

It is true that injuries are weighing the South American down, but in elite football, timing is crucial and precedent works against Melo, who will miss the World Cup, find it very difficult to impress Klopp and will once again walk out the back door of a big club, leaving his future up in the air once again. What's more, there are reports in England suggesting that Liverpool are trying to get rid of the Brazilian in the winter transfer window to make room in the squad.The Liverpool star was shocked by what happened in his mansion, as he did not think what the drug traffickers were doing.
