As the summer transfer window opens for Riccardo Calafiori to join Arsenal, Jakub Kiwior is expected to be sold. Over the last few months, a number of Serie A teams have shown interest in signing Kiwior, but Arsenal has repeatedly turned down their bids. Despite Arsenal’s early belief that Kiwior was impenetrable, he proved to be an invaluable asset in the second part of the season.
Kiwior was previously permitted to depart, but now that Jurrien Timber has returned from a long-term injury and Calafiori is set to join, he may leave. Juventus and AC Milan, among others, are interested in signing Kiwior, so this is great news for them. Arsenal has reportedly set a price for Kiwior and is willing to selling him, according to Football Italia.
Arsenal Make Decision On Jakub Kiwior
Calafiori is expected to start right away by Mikel Arteta’s team, which might hurt Gabriel Magalhaes and Kiwior. Since Kiwior is officially on the market, his potential buyers are likely to step up their pursuit of him in the days to come.
This move is strategically sound for Arsenal. Even without Kiwior, the defense will be strong thanks to Timber’s comeback and Calafiori’s entrance. The club might use the money from selling Kiwior now to bolster other parts of the team. If Calafiori need more time to adjust to the Premier League, then Kiwior’s exit might be risky. Fans of Arsenal may be worried about losing a valuable player, but if Arteta is right, everyone might benefit from this change.
Arsenal took a calculated risk by selling Kiwior in the midst of signing Calafiori. It may disturb a tried and true defense, but it increases financial flexibility and welcomes fresh talent. The transfer might improve Arsenal’s depth and performance as a whole if Calafiori adjusts fast, which could alarm fans.

According to Team Talk, Arsenal are still interested in signing Raphinha. Having monitored his career attentively from his time at Leeds United, the Gunners have continued to do so now. Even before he signed with Barcelona, they made an effort to sign him. The experience of Raphinha at Barcelona has been mixed. Consistently, he has failed to meet expectations. Barcelona still considers him an important player, no matter how bad things go for him. But if a good deal comes in, they could be willing to let him leave. This is the point at which Arsenal gets involved.
Mikel Arteta is contemplating a trade as manager of Arsenal. As a result, Raphinha might end up in Barcelona and Eddie Nketiah on the other side. Despite his talent, Nketiah has struggled to get game time for Arsenal. This summer, the club seems prepared to release him. In their pursuit of a roster overhaul, Barcelona could be interested in this.
