Jakub Kiwior left Spezia Calcio for a record amount of EUR 25 million and moved to Arsenal, the leader of the Premier League. The Polish defender signed a 5.5-year contract and is to fight for a place in the starting line-up with Brazilian Gabriel Magalhaes. “I’ve always dreamed of playing in England. I know it won’t be easy here, and if I get the chance, I have to make the most of it. It’s a big thing for me that Arsenal were interested in me,” he said after signing the contract.
Kiwior appeared in the Arsenal dressing room ahead of the official announcement of the transfer. “It wasn’t planned”
Before Arsenal officially announced the acquisition of Jakub Kiwior from Spezia Calcio, the footballer watched the match against Manchester United (3: 2) from the Emirates Stadium in the company of his partner and Edu Gaspar, Arsenal’s sporting director. Paweł Zimończyk, Kiwior’s agent, revealed in an interview with the Sports Channel what happened after the match.
– Kuba’s entrance to the locker room was not planned, but as soon as Oleksandr Zinchenko saw us, he immediately called him and said: “If you are already with us, you are one of us” – he said. In this way, Kiwior celebrated the success of his new colleagues before he started working with them.
It is possible that Jakub Kiwior will have a chance to make his Arsenal debut in the FA Cup match against Manchester City. – Kuba shows his readiness to play from the first day after arriving in London. I hope that if these formalities are already approved, he will be in the big squad for the match against Manchester City. It would be nice if he could immediately feel the atmosphere of the FA Cup and the atmosphere of the trip to Manchester – Paweł Zimończyk and a member of the FairSport International agency told Sport.pl.
