Arthur Henrique Santos Ramos de Oliveira Melo (born 20th April 1996), commonly known as Arthur or Arthur Melo, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Serie A club Fiorentina on loan from Juventus and the Brazil national team.

Born in Goiânia, he began his career at Grêmio winning the Copa Libertadores in 2017 and Campeonato Gaúcho in 2018. In his three years at Grêmio, Arthur established himself as a prospect which led Barcelona to sign him for an initial fee of €31 million in 2018. Two years later, he joined Italian club Juventus, which signed him for €72 million, with add-ons of €10 million. This deal is also coordinated with Miralem Pjanić's transfer, who is going to the other way.

Arthur made his senior debut for Brazil in 2018 after previously being capped by Brazil youth team at under-17 level. He was later part of the squad that won the 2019 Copa América.
