Scout report

Squad depthCentral midfielder

Arthur is a 29-year-old central midfielder at Gremio, rated 37.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 247th of 422 on scout potential in the Serie A. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (32.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.01 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Arthur.

Judged on this season alone, Arthur graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 84th of 97 of the 97 central midfielders in the Serie A, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 3.014 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 8 → 9). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 37, 59th of 97 of the 97 central midfielders in the Serie A. At 29 Arthur is in his prime years, and a market index of 9.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Arthur missed 3 games through injury and 1 suspension (injury, inactive, yellow cards) out of roughly 38 this season. The 13 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 32.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 37.4, Arthur carries the 59th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie A of 97 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
