Arsenal announced the permanent signing of defender Piero Hincapié on June 25, formally converting his loan spell into a permanent deal. The 23-year-old featured in 39 matches during the 2025-26 season, with 25 league appearances and was selected to start in the Champions League final.
Hincapié's permanent move reflects Arsenal's confidence in his defensive capabilities and marks a significant investment in their backline. His performance this season demonstrated the quality required for top-level Premier League football.
The transfer strengthens Arsenal's depth in central defence heading into the new season.
