Italian media: Juventus will not let Artur go for free, and asks Gremio to exchange for some young players

According to Turin Sports, Juventus is not going to let Artur go for free, but hopes that Gremio will exchange Artur with some young players.

Juventus midfielder Artur will leave this summer. Brazilian team Gremio hopes to sign him. Artur debuted at Gremio that year. Previous reports said that Artur will terminate the contract with Juventus and join Gremio for free. However, Turin Sports said that Juventus is not going to release people for free because this will lead to capital losses for the club.

Juventus proposed to let Gremio exchange the ownership or priority rights of some young players for Artur, which is similar to Juventus' transfer to Tevez. In 2015, Tevez left Juventus and returned to Boca youth to play football. At that time, Juventus obtained ownership of Boca youth player Guido Vadala, as well as the first right of refusal for three young players, Bentankur, Christardo and Kubas. In 2017, Juventus exercised the first right of refusal for Bentankur.
