Arsenal Cancel Kiwior Flight Amid Hincapie Chase
Jakub Kiwior (Arsenal)
August 2025
Arsenal halted Jakub Kiwior’s transfer to Porto, cancelling a private jet arranged for his travel, as they wait to finalise a deal for Bayer Leverkusen’s Piero Hincapie. Porto had agreed personal terms with Kiwior for a season-long loan with buy clause. Arsenal want Hincapie before sanctioning Kiwior’s exit, but Leverkusen are demanding his £52m release clause be met. Hincapie has agreed personal terms with Arsenal, yet negotiations stall, leaving Kiwior’s proposed £22.5m move to Porto in limbo.
