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. "Naby Keita is another who is rarely available but contributes rare progressive qualities. He scored four goals in 72 appearances with the La Liga club over two seasons.

Arthur is very much a stop-gap signing, but arrives with experience of playing for big clubs in Barcelona and Juventus, as well as with 22 caps for Brazil to his name. The Brazilian international, 26, is set to undergo a medical with the Reds on Thursday as they seek to complete a deal before the transfer window closes. THE VERDICT: It's far from the solution many would have predicted for Liverpool when talking about midfield reinforcements this summer, but it's a body at least, and a player with a fair bit of top-level pedigree.

Liverpool have been sent a warning ahead of their potential transfer deadline day move for Juventus midfielder Arthur Melo.

The Brazil playmaker has played for Juventus and [Barcelona](/latest/barcelona-fc) but former Arsenal striker Kevin Campbell has one question mark over the potential signing. It's difficult because for sure there [are] a few who are right, but there are different issues. Klopp has admitted that Liverpool are in need of midfield reinforcements, with just James Milner, Fabinho, Harvey Elliott, Fabio Carvalho and Curtis Jones as options for Saturday’s Merseyside derby. [Jurgen Klopp’s](/latest/jurgen-klopp) side are set to bolster their options in the middle of the park by signing the Brazilian on loan before Thursday’s 11.00pm deadline. “Jordan Henderson getting injured in the game yesterday has forced their hand to bring somebody in.

Arthur Melo is poised to complete a season-long loan switch to Liverpool before the transfer deadline after Arsenal snubbed the chance to sign him despite ...

Arthur has yet to play for Juventus this season but did rack up 31 appearances in total last season. Neither player proved to be a hit at Anfield though, with Kabak failing to earn a permanent move while Davies joined Rangers this summer having never played a single game for Liverpool's senior side. That said, Klopp has highlighted the importance of having strength in depth to call upon as Liverpool prepare for the hectic schedule ahead. The Brazilian came close to sealing a loan move to the Gunners back in January, before again being linked this summer, but it is Liverpool who have swooped in to land his services. Speaking in February after the winter transfer window had closed, Arteta said: "Edu and his team did a fantastic job and they continue to do that. "We only want the best players and the best people in this club.

If Jurgen Klopp's bosses at Liverpool still needed any convincing that a midfielder was desperately required with the transfer deadline approaching, ...

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.
