Arsenal have completed their second signing of the January transfer window with Jakub Kiwior joining the club from Spezia. An initial fee of £17.5million will be paid to the Italian club with a potential further £3.5million in add ons. His contract will last until 2027 with the option to extend for a further year.
The Polish international is signing number two of the last four days joining Leandro Trossard in securing a permanent transfer to the Gunners, with the Belgian making his debut in Sunday's win over Manchester United. Kiwior's main position in Italy this season has been on the left of a back three, although he can be deployed in a holding midfield role.
Speaking about the transfer, sporting director Edu told the club's offiicial website: “We’re delighted to have completed the signing of Jakub Kiwior. He’s a young talent who we’ve been monitoring for a while now. We are now all looking forward to working with Jakub and seeing his continued development with us. We welcome Jakub to Arsenal.”
