Overview

• Porto are negotiating with Arsenal over Jakub Kiwior, with AC Milan also linked before the window closes.
• Reports describe a loan structure under discussion that could include an obligation to buy, with the total package exceeding £23 million.
• A major sticking point is Porto wanting Arsenal to contribute to the defender’s wages during any loan.
• Kiwior’s role has diminished after Cristhian Mosquera’s arrival, and he was omitted from the Aug. 9 matchday squad.
• Arsenal are prepared to consider proposals that suit club and player, with Portuguese reports suggesting Kiwior is pushing for a move.
