Palmeiras is set to open talks in the coming weeks to offer a contract extension to left-back Arthur, one of the club's top young players. The information comes from colleague Leonardo Barbieri, of the Nosso Palestra portal.

What is the goal of the contract extension?

The initiative has the approval of coach Abel Ferreira and aims to recognize the growth of the 20-year-old player in the professional squad, as well as to ward off interest from potential clubs in the market.

How does Palmeiras see Arthur's future?

The board considers it natural to value athletes who manage to establish themselves among professionals. Arthur's current contract was renewed in 2025 and is valid until the end of 2029.

What are the expectations for Arthur's future?

The internal expectation is that negotiations with the player and his representatives will begin soon. The board's confidence in Arthur is also reflected in the stance taken towards the market. The player received inquiries and offers at the start of the season, such as from Borussia Dortmund, of Germany.
