Arthur celebrates first title as captain and wants to stay at Grêmio | OneFootball

Arthur Melo says he wants to remain at Grêmio after captaining his boyhood club to the Gauchão title.

"My wish is to stay at Grêmio. It is my home." According to Globo.com, he spoke on Monday afternoon in an exclusive interview, discussing the win, Luís Castro’s work and his contract.

The state crown was sealed with a 1-1 draw against Inter at Beira-Rio on Sunday. It marked his first trophy as captain in his second spell, which began in August last year.

The midfielder featured in eight matches in the competition, starting seven, with 95% pass accuracy. He has become a technical and emotional reference for the side.

His Grêmio contract runs until June 2026, and the club can extend it to the end of the season. He remains under contract at Juventus until June 2027.

"The captain’s armband is only a band, what makes you captain is your daily work and commitment to the group."
