Arsenal has been fielding interest in Jakub Kiwior for some time, and the arrival of Riccardo Calafiori is expected to make them more open to selling the Poland international.
Calafiori has been in fantastic form in Serie A and impressed the Gunners with his performance in his recent tournament with the national team.
Several clubs were interested in signing him, but Arsenal won the race for his signature. Now, Kiwior faces increased competition for game time at the Emirates.
Several top Serie A clubs have scouted Kiwior over the past few months, but Arsenal was initially reluctant to let him go.
They have now softened their stance, with a report from Mirror Football claiming that Mikel Arteta’s side will allow him to leave if a serious suitor emerges.
The report indicates that Arsenal will consider letting Kiwior leave on loan with an obligation to buy next summer, or on a permanent transfer.
However, the Gunners will not accept a loan offer without a serious possibility of a permanent move.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Kiwior is one of our reliable defenders, but our number of centre-backs might force us to sell some, and he could be sacrificed.

“Arsenal was initially reluctant to let him go. They have now softened their stance…”. – market reality is, apparently, finally entering Arsenal’s calculations (hopefully).
If the club wants to offload players, and they certainly do – there’s no doubt about that – then they’re going to have to “soften their stance” on a few more as well such as Ramsdale and Eddie (and who knows about our seemingly “forgotten” player, Nelson?).
Le’s hope there’s now movement around the exit door – although with two months gone already in the transfer window – Arsenal is leaving things late.
