January transfer window is rapidly approaching and rumours are flying around very fast. Now, one Arsenal FC superstar is attracted a lot of traffic as 10 clubs are keen to sign him in January. His name is Jakub Kiwior who arrived to North London only in January 2023.
Kiwior to leave Arsenal FC in January?
Jakub Kiwior is very heavily linked with Arsenal exit due to lack of game time. The 24 year old is yet to start any game in Premier League this season. In addition, he has only played 374 minutes this season across 10 games.
Kiwior has fallen down the pecking order which ahs limited his chances. But, the Poland international is too good to sit regularly on bench. He is very young and will enter the peak of his career. It is definate that he will demand regular game at this stage of his career.
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta views Kiwior as a key player in his squad. It is due to the player’s versatility to play anywhere in the defensive line. Arteta will like to keep Kiwior at club as he prefers good squad depth.
But despite the manager’s choice, Kiwior too will have a say about his future. As of now he is very likely to move away from the Emirates in january. As per CaughtOffside, Arsenal will be prepared to sell him if offer around €40 million – €45 million comes up.
Which are the 10 clubs interested to sign Kiwior?
As of now, as much as 10 clubs are keen to sign the 24 year old. Seven of those are from Italy where Kiwior has already proved his worth. Two are from Spain whereas one is from France.
From Italy, the interested parties are Juventus, AC Milan, Inter Milan, Napoli, Atlanta, Bologna and Fiorentina. From Spain, Sevilla and Villarreal are interested whereas from France Olympique Marseille are interested.
Some of the clubs are planning to sign the defender on loan in January. But, Gunners have already told that they will be only willing to sell Kiwior permanently. It will be interesting to see how the transfer saga unfolds.
