Time is running out for clubs to do business in the transfer window. "Klopp's midfield, and indeed the system itself, is heavily reliant on the press-resistant, pedigreed pass-master Thiago. The player is flying now, he's flying from Turin to Liverpool. The midfield acts as enablers for the full-backs and the forward - a source of steel, stability, cover. "He is an excellent plan - but for his availability, which was no secret when he was signed from Bayern Munich.

It is not a move that even the club's recruitment staff could have foreseen in the early weeks of this summer transfer window. However, quite unlike at Anfield this time, the Magpies were penned in, dominated, and sliced apart so regularly that a 4-0 scoreline would've been more appropriate. But the events of Wednesday evening at Anfield also served to throw up yet more questions over the obvious problem area of Klopp's squad, and it is within this context that a loan deal for Juventus midfielder Arthur Melo is now looking likely to be completed on deadline day.
Liverpool have swooped in late in the transfer window to make a deadline day signing of Arthur Melo on loan from Juventus.

TransferMax Woltman completes loan switch to Doncaster. GalleryPhotos: Arthur Melo arrives at the AXA Training Centre to seal loan move. It’s a massive club with a great manager, great players. He added: “Liverpool have a wonderful history in football. He tallied 50 appearances during four seasons with the Porto Alegre club before securing a switch to Barcelona in 2018. I’m really happy and highly motivated to continue living my dream on the pitch and giving my all in a Liverpool shirt.”
Liverpool have addressed their midfield shortage by signing Arthur Melo on a season-long loan from Juventus after Jordan Henderson injured a hamstring.
Liverpool tried to sign Aurélien Tchouaméni from Monaco this summer but the France international was set on a move to Real Madrid, whom he joined in a €100m deal. But the 26-year-old has made only 24 starts in Serie A and found himself on the margins of Massimiliano Allegri’s plans last season. The Brazil international travelled to Merseyside for a medical on deadline day after an approach from Liverpool in the early hours of Thursday.
The Brazilian completed a surprise deadline day switch to Anfield after Liverpool's injury crisis worsened on Wednesday night against Newcastle.
"I’m really, really happy to be here wearing this great shirt with this famous badge that represents so much in world football, it’s a dream," He told Liverpoolfc.com. I’m really happy and highly motivated to continue living my dream on the pitch and giving my all in a Liverpool shirt.” Arthur, who has a contract until 2025 in Turin, has joined Liverpool until the end of the season.
Liverpool have confirmed the signing of Brazil midfielder Arthur Melo on a season-long loan from Juventus; the Reds found themselves light in midfield ...
It is a worrying trend which goes part of the way to explaining why Arsenal decided against moving for him in the January transfer window. Chiefly, though, he is someone who can help his team dominate possession and unpick opposition defences. Only one player, Manuel Locatelli, has averaged more passes in the final third. He has won a total of 22 caps for Brazil and played a key role in his country's Copa America triumph back in 2019. Over the course of his first season at the club, he only started more than three consecutive games on two occasions. Does he have the robustness to play under Klopp?
With the Reds getting a warm body in the door to stave off their injury crisis, we try and get a sense for what their new man can contribute.
On the other hand, the worst that can happen is he doesn’t do a whole lot and leaves at the end of the season having not impacted the club’s ability to go after their top targets next summer. The Reds could be getting a player desperate to improve his standing in world football and break back into the Seleção as he enters his prime. Or they could be getting a player downtrodden by the cynicism of international football, simply moving from one frustrating situation to the next without the motivation to re-engage and take charge of his career. Once he has achieved control and worked himself a bit of space, the other thing Arthur excels at is moving the ball along. A single loss of possession per game on average is also testament to the former Grêmio man’s press resistance and ball retention ability. The 26-year-old possesses terrific fundamentals and rarely takes a bad touch, even in tight areas, using close control, balance, and vision to ensure the ball does what he wants it to do.
