Arsenal are closing in on their second signing in the January transfer window. The Gunners completed a £21million deal to sign Leandro Trossard from Brighton and are now focusing on securing a move for Jakub Kiwior.
The Poland international impressed at the World Cup in Qatar and was considered as a potential signing by Chelsea before the Blues moved for Benoit Badiashile instead. Kiwior fits the bill with Arsenal looking to add a left-sided centre-back to Mikel Arteta's squad, adding quality in depth in a key area of the team.
Kiwior can also play as a defensive midfielder, playing as a No. 6 19 times in the Italian top-flight last term, as per Transfermarkt. That will give Arsenal some much-needed cover in the centre of the pitch, with Arteta's side heavily relying on Thomas Partey to anchor their midfield in recent seasons.
