Jakub Kiwior Transfer from Arsenal to Crystal Palace

Jakub Kiwior has been linked by media with Crystal Palace as a potential destination. However, FC Porto is currently seen as the frontrunner for his transfer.

Jakub Kiwior is keen to move to a team where he can get more playing time. Crystal Palace are showing interest in Kiwior, looking to strengthen their defense following Marc Guéhi’s possible transfer. Previous attempts to sign Kiwior were blocked by Arsenal, but the club’s stance could change with the budget from Guéhi’s sale. Discussions are expected to intensify in the coming days.

Jakub Kiwior may leave Arsenal due to limited first-team opportunities following Gabriel's return from injury. Crystal Palace is interested in acquiring Kiwior, especially if their player Marc Guéhi transfers to Liverpool. Historically, Arsenal has blocked past attempts by Crystal Palace to sign Kiwior, but with potential funds from Guéhi's transfer, Arsenal's stance might change. The situation is expected to resolve in the coming days.

Jakub Kiwior may leave Arsenal during the current summer transfer window but not necessarily the Premier League. There is a chance he could land at Crystal Palace, as reported by Sami Mokbel, a journalist from BBC Sport. Crystal Palace is preparing for participation in European competitions and is seeking to fill the gap expected from the departure of Marc Guéhi, their defensive leader. If their efforts to finalize a record transfer for Ousmane Diomande from Sporting CP do not succeed, they might turn to Arsenal to initiate serious efforts for Jakub Kiwior.

Crystal Palace made inquiries about Jakub Kiwior's availability. Other Premier League clubs and several from Europe have also expressed interest in the versatile centre-back. However, Arsenal have firmly rejected those approaches and insist Kiwior is not for sale under any circumstances. Arsenal have placed an enormous asking price of €70 million (£60m) on Kiwior to deter potential buyers. The club views him as a key player in their defensive setup, especially after Gabriel Magalhaes' injury, and plans to keep him for the 2025/26 Premier League season.
