Real Betis consider January move for Juventus star as solution to midfield injury crisis

Real Betis are currently without three of their four senior defensive midfielders: William Carvalho has been out since September after rupturing his Achilles tendon, Marc Roca has struggled with an ankle complaint in recent weeks, while that Johnny Cardoso pulled his hamstring while on international duty with the United States. Therefore, Sergi Altimira is the only natural option available to Manuel Pellegrini.

Betis hope Carvalho will be back at the start of 2025, while Roca and Johnny should also be back before then. Despite this, the club's sports department is looking to sign a new midfielder during the winter transfer window, and according to EDArthur Melo is one of the players being considered.

Arthur is deeply unhappy at Juventus, where he has yet to play a single minute this season. Betis you will see this as an opportunity to secure his services in January, as he is likely to be allowed to leave on loan.
