Talks between Milan and Arsenal for Jakub Kiwior continue even if the Gunners are reportedly unwilling to loan out the former Spezia defender in January.

Milan are expected to sign a new defender in the winter transfer window to boost Stefano Pioli’s options at the back. The Rossoneri have travelled to Newcastle for a Champions League meeting on Wednesday with Fikayo Tomori as their only fit centre-back.

According to Calciomercato.com, the Serie A giants are in talks with Arsenal for Kiwior who has emerged as their priority target also because of his versatility. The Poland international can either play as a centre-back or as a left-back.

The report claims Arsenal are unwilling to loan Kiwior out in January, but the Rossoneri continue pushing as the 23-year-old defender wants more playing time.

The Gunners’ value Kiwior at €25m, but Milan hope to get the player on loan until June and discuss the defender’s future at the end of the season.
