The transfer of players is no longer part of the plan of BLD Arsenal are facing difficulties, when partners ask to buy the duo Jakub Kiwior and Fabio Vieira are not ready to meet the fees that the Gunners want.
According to the Portuguese newspaper, A Bola reported, Porto wanted the service of the Polish and Kiwior players but refused the price of £ 26 million that Arsenal asked. Instead, they switched to signing a contract with center -back Jan Bednarek of Southampton for £ 6.5 million.
The Gunners must play on many different fronts, so basically coach Mikel Arteta wants to keep Kiwior for the next season to make a backup plan, but this player is said to be considering leaving to have more time to play. He was rumored to move to Serie A, but until now he still belongs to the Gunners.
Also related to the cooperative relationship between Arsenal and Porto, the Portuguese team previously refused to activate the terms of buying the midfielder Fabio Vieira, who was lent by the Gunners last season. The North London team after successfully recruiting Christian Norgaard and Martin Zubimendi in the transfer window this summer is not interested in keeping Viera.
The Athletic reported that Stuttgart approached Arsenal with the offer to recruit Vieira with a long -term contract this summer, and the Gunners were also ready to sell disgraced attacking midfielder at the Emirates Stadium. Although the two clubs have not reached an agreement, the transfer negotiations are progressing rapidly. Arsenal wants to receive a transfer fee of £ 35 million, but this is still a request beyond the ability of the Bundesliga representative.
Arsenal spent £ 30 million plus £ 3 million to recruit Vieira from Porto in 2022. In the first season at Emirates, the Portuguese star played 22 matches in the Premier League, in which he only played three matches. The next season, he once again struggled to find opportunities and only play in the starting line -up of 2 matches in the top tournament.
