Jakub Kiwior, a young and talented defender for Arsenal, is facing uncertainty about his future with the club. This past Saturday, he was left out of the squad for their Premier League match against Wolves, not due to injury but simply because he was not selected.
Despite making 20 Premier League appearances last season and 30 in all competitions, the 24-year-old has not been a regular starter since joining from Spezia in January 2023. And now, as the Gunners kick off their Premier League campaign at home, Kiwior was not even included on the substitutes' bench.
It seems that manager Mikel Arteta has plenty of defensive options at his disposal, with new signing Riccardo Calafiori and the returning Jurrien Timber making the bench. The starting back four for the Wolves match consisted of Ben White, William Saliba, Gabriel Magalhaes, and Oleksandr Zinchenko, showcasing the depth and quality in the Gunners' defense.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, there is a possibility that Kiwior could leave the club before the transfer window closes. However, at the moment, nothing is close to being finalized with any club, and his future remains an open situation.
Earlier in the summer, Polish publication Meczyki reported that Arsenal is open to letting Kiwior go on loan with an obligation to buy. There is said to be interest from Italian clubs, where Kiwior previously played, as well as other potential suitors. It remains to be seen what will ultimately happen with Kiwior's future, but for now, he will have to wait for his chance to make an impact on the pitch for Arsenal.
