Arsenal have signed Poland international defender Jakub Kiwior for £21million.
The Gunners have confirmed that the left-footed centre-back, who joins from Italian side Spezia, has signed a “long-term” contract in North London. The 22-year-old moves to the Emirates after holding talks with club chiefs over the weekend. The Gunners have beaten a host of Serie A sides - including Juventus and AC Milan - to his signature.
Kiwior, who was an important part of Poland’s starting lineup at the World Cup - having only made his international breakthrough last year, with Robert Lewandowski, Poland's captain, labelling him "extraordinary" - further beefs up the Premier League leaders’ squad, becoming their second signing of the current transfer window, following the £27million arrival of Leandro Trossard.
