The Italian club and the Gunners have a good business relationship, with Arsenal previously signing Takehiro Tomiyasu from them.
Arsenal quickly led the race for Calafiori after watching him play at Euro 2024 and have since reached an agreement on personal terms with the defender.
The Gunners are working hard to ensure that he finally makes the move to the Emirates, and Bologna has shown interest in Jakub Kiwior to replace the Azzurri player.
A report on Football Italia claims Bologna asked Arsenal about the possibility of signing Kiwior while both clubs discussed a move for Calafiori.
Regardless of what happens, the agreements will be separate, but the Serie A club has now joined the race for the Polish defender and will compete against the likes of Juventus and Inter Milan.
Just Arsenal Opinion
We might have to sell Kiwior after completing the transfer of Calafiori, but if we keep him, it will also be important to our squad depth.
We want to win trophies, so we need a big squad to compete well in all the competitions we are involved in next season.
ADMIN COMMENT

You agree not to give any personal abuse to other Arsenal fans. Everyone is allowed to hold their own opinions even if you disagree with them. It COSTS NOTHING TO BE POLITE TO OTHER ARSENAL FANS.

Let’s just swap the two defenders. Solve the problem.
Riccardo can be a good addition to the arsenal squard now. for the betterment of kiwiors’ future he should consider leaving arsenal
No. We must not contemplate of selling Kiwior as he is one of our asset for the future. There are lots of rooms for him to improve and become established player. This he had displayed last season, when Chinzenko ”s form dropped. We must keep hold of him for now and for the future if need be please. I thinks Cedric, Tierny and Lonkonga can be put up for sale.
Everything is with opinion, but for me i wish them to buy calaeiori and sell jakub just for his progress.
