We 'signed' Jakub Kiwior for Arsenal and Mikel Arteta's side won trophies with the defender

Arsenal have made their second signing of the January transfer window, with the Gunners confirming a £21million deal for Spezia defender Jakub Kiwior on Monday night.

Following Arsenal 's 3-2 win over Manchester United on Sunday afternoon, the Gunners sit five points clear at the top of the Premier League table with a game in hand on second-placed Manchester City. January signing Leandro Trossard made his Arsenal debut off the bench against United, and Mikel Arteta has now strengthened his squad further to ensure his side can continue their push for the title with the arrival of Kiwior.

A regular for Poland in the 2022 World Cup, the 22-year-old defender will cost an original fee of £17.5million, with the remaining £3.5million in potential add-ons, football.london understands. Kiwior was spotted in attendance at the game against United, with the defender's contract set to run until 2027.
