Fabrizio Romano has reported on Twitter that Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal have completed the signing of Jakub Kiwior from Spezia in the January transfer window.
The well-known and well-respected journalist has claimed that Kiwior has agreed a five-year contract with Arsenal.
The Gunners will pay Spezia over €20 million (£17.52 million) in transfer fees for the Poland international centre-back.
Romano has added that Spezia will undergo a medical at Arsenal in the next 48 hours.
Jakub Kiwior to join Arsenal from Spezia
Good signing for the Gunners?
In our view, Jakub Kiwior will be a good signing for Arsenal in the January transfer window.
Arsenal are aiming to win the Premier League title this season, and it seems that the club are doing their best to make the squad better for the second half of the campaign.
The Gunners are doing well at the back and are very strong defensively, but there is no harm in adding another centre-back to the squad to reinforce that particular department.
Moreover, Kiwior is only 22, so he is certainly a player who can be successful at Arsenal in the future.
The youngster has made 17 appearances in Serie A for Spezia this season.
Kiwior played in four matches for Poland at the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
