Arthur has already drawn high praise in his brief time spent at Barcelona, but the Brazilian wants to pump the breaks on being compared to club legend Xavi.

The 22-year-old received the compliment from team-mate Lionel Messi, who compared him to Xavi – something that humbled Arthur.

“I am Arthur. And they (Xavi and Andres Iniesa) are them. Two world-class players that worked to deserve this. I still have a lot to do,” he said.

See what else Arthur had to say in the video below.
