Jakub Kiwior could stay at Arsenal. And that will most likely be the fate of the Polish defender, who has ended up in the sights of several Serie A clubs over the months. Some have even explored the Gunners’ willingness to let him go on loan, but the answer has been the same for everyone. That is, negative, net of the Pole’s lack of playing time and the arrival of Riccardo Calafiori who will further reduce his space in the near future.
Kiwior is a target for Bologna who would like him on loanalso by virtue of a heavy salary – over 2.5 million euros per season, bonuses included – and test him in Vincenzo Italiano’s four-man defence. However, it seems like a difficult situation to unlock unless there is a 20 million euro offer for the definitive title. So the risk for Kiwior is to remain in London for another season, after Juventus and Milan had also tried in the winter, without success.
New contacts between the parties are expected tomorrow to try to find a compromisebut the refusals to other clubs – such as Inter, precisely, or Olympique Marseille – do not seem to lean towards a white smoke. Even if there are only five days left until the end of the transfer market.
