Arthur Augusto de Matos Soares, known as Arthur, joined Bayer 04 in the summer of 2023. The right-back came from América Mineiro in his home country Brazil on a contract at Leverkusen to 2028. "Arthur brings considerable speed and, above all, footballing finesse to the game. He is agile, has vision in defence and is strong going forwards," explained managing director sport Simon Rolfes at his unveiling. Arthur made his debut for Brazil in the spring of 2023. He won the South American Championship with Brazil U20s shortly before that.
