Arsenal are reportedly prepared to loan out Jakub Kiwior during the January transfer window amid his links with Serie A clubs.
A report from 90min has claimed that Italian clubs AC Milan, Roma and Atalanta are all keeping tabs on the situation Jakub Kiwior. And Arsenal are ready to sanction a loan deal for the Polish international.
The 23-year-old has struggled for regular game time since moving to the North London club in the January transfer window this year, and he needs to leave in order to play more often. The Poland international is highly rated across Europe, and he has a big future ahead of him.
Kiwior cannot afford to sit on the bench every week, and he will need to play more often to continue his progress. Arsenal do not want to sell him. So, a loan move would be ideal for all parties.
It will be interesting to see if Arsenal can find a suitable club for him in January. The player signed for Arsenal at the start of the year, and he has started just twice in the Premier League this season. The defender has played a total of 182 minutes in the league this season, and a player of his potential needs more opportunities.
The 23-year-old has attributes to develop into a quality Premier League defender, and he could be a key player for Arsenal in the coming seasons with the right guidance. Arsenal could certainly use more quality and depth in their central defence, and they should look to focus on the development of the Polish defender.
If he manages to fulfil his tremendous potential, he could end up saving millions in the transfer market for them. A player of his ability should have no shortage of suitors, and he could be an important first-team player for several clubs during the second half of the campaign.
Arsenal currently have a number of quality defenders at the disposal, and the 23-year-old is unlikely to get ample opportunities at the North London club. It would make sense for him to move on and gain some valuable first-team experience at another club and return as a better player in the summer.
The 23-year-old is versatile enough to operate as a central defender, a left-back as well as a defensive midfielder. He has all the tools to develop into an indispensable asset for Arsenal and it remains to be how his situation unfolds.
