The January transfer window is just around the corner, giving Juventus the chance to find a replacement for Gleison Bremer. Unfortunately, Bremer is expected to miss the rest of the 2024-25 season due to a torn cruciate ligament.
As a result, rumors are already circulating about potential defensive targets for the Old Lady once the window opens. Last month, TuttoJuve reported that Arsenal's Jakub Kiwior is once again being linked with a move to Serie A. The Gunners are reportedly open to selling him, but only on a permanent transfer.
Juventus could make a serious move, especially since Thiago Motta is eager to work with the Polish defender again after their time together at Spezia. Much will depend on the transfer fee Arsenal sets.
Arsenal take a stance on the future of Jakub Kiwior
Napoli have ramped up their interest in Kiwior, who is reportedly considering a move away from the club. Italian outlet Il Mattino claims Napoli are keen to sign the Poland international following an injury to center-back Alessandro Buongiorno.
On Sky Calcio Club, Luca Marchetti reviewed Juventus' negotiations for the January transfer market, including their interest in Kiwior.
"Arsenal's stance is clear: Kiwior will only leave if he's permanently signed," Marchetti said (h/t Juventus News 24). "This applies to both Napoli and Juventus—any club wanting Kiwior will need to buy him."
The information from Marchetti doesn't reveal how much Arsenal could demand for the player, but Transfermarkt puts the defender's transfer value at €28 million.
Estadio Deportivo recently reported that Sevilla are keeping an eye on the player and are looking to replace Loïc Badé with the Poland international, who has struggled to find consistent playing time at his Premier League club.
