Porto confirm permanent signing of Arsenal centre-back | OneFootball

Porto have confirmed that the club have signed Jakub Kiwior on a permanent deal from Arsenal.

Kiwior has made 25 Primeira Liga appearances during a season-long loan spell at Porto, who were crowned Portuguese champions last week.

The Poland international has now signed for the title winners on a permanent deal, worth an initial €17m (£14.6m) with a further €5m (£4.3m) in potential add-ons.

Journalist Ben Jacobs has reported that Arsenal are also entitled to €2m (£1.7m) of any future sale. Kiwior has signed a four-year contract at The Estádio do Dragão which contains a release clause of €70m (£60.4m).

Kiwior left Arsenal last summer after struggling for regular first-team football in North London. He started just 10 Premier League games in 2024/25 and was allowed to move on after the arrival of Piero Hincapie from Bayer Leverkusen. Arsenal are set to turn Hicapie’s loan move into a permanent transfer.
