Kiwior, iron talisman: FC Porto unbeaten in Primeira Liga with Pole | OneFootball

Jakub Kiwior remains unbeaten in league matches in which he has played for FC Porto. The Polish centre-back has established himself as a key figure in the Dragons’ defensive solidity since arriving at the club in the summer of 2025.

The partnership formed with Jan Bednarek has also produced impressive numbers. In the 33 matches in which both centre-backs played together — 30 in the Primeira Liga and three in the Portuguese Cup — FC Porto recorded 28 wins and five draws.

Kiwior’s influence became even more evident in the two league matches he missed during the 2025/26 season. The blue and whites lost to Casa Pia and AVS, conceding a total of five goals in those games.

The Polish international’s performances earned him a place in the Liga Portugal 2025/26 Team of the Year. Kiwior helped FC Porto finish that edition of the competition with the best defensive record and remains one of the main pillars of the back line of the team coached by Francesco Farioli.
