Fabrizio Romano claims Arsenal could now let 'unbelievable' defender leave for the right price this summer

Arsenal are likely to be busy in the summer transfer window as Mikel Arteta and Edu look to apply the finishing touches to the Gunners squad.

The Gunners were once again in the Premier League title picture last season, taking the battle to the final day of the campaign.

However, Arsenal sadly fell just short once again, so the Gunners hierarchy will want to strengthen so they can look to go all the way in 2025.

Outgoings will likely be on the cards to balance out the incomings at the Emirates Stadium too.

With that in mind, Fabrizio Romano has now published a report claiming Arsenal could be tempted to sell one of their defenders for the right price.

What has Fabrizio Romano said about Arsenal defender Jakub Kiwior?

The transfer insider, writing on CaughtOffside, claimed that the Gunners are open to letting Jakub Kiwior leave, but only for an ‘important proposal’.

Kiwior has established himself as a squad player for Arsenal and enjoyed a run in the starting XI in February and March last year.

However, he faces a lot of competition at both centre-back and at left-back, and 12 of his 30 outings last term were off the bench.

Kiwior has been linked with AC Milan and, according to Romano, Arsenal aren’t exactly deeming him off-limits, but only a big offer would suffice.

“Jakub Kiwior to AC Milan stories are also back again,” began Romano.

“The Polish defender has always been appreciated by AC Milan, as he was on their list also in January, but at the moment Milan have not approached Arsenal yet.

“They have different priorities including a new right-back and a new striker. For the centre-back, we will see later in the window.

“Arsenal could sell Kiwior this summer, but only for an important proposal.”

Jakub Kiwior a solid squad option for Arsenal

Any club wanting to go far in the league, domestic cups and in Europe needs to have good strength in depth.

Although Kiwior has some stiff competition in front of him in the Arsenal pecking order, he’s become a solid and reliable player for Mikel Arteta.

With regards to Kiwior’s future, much depends on whether the ‘unbelievable‘ talent decides he wants to be in the starting XI week in, week out or whether he’s happy to be a squad member at Arsenal.
