Mikel Arteta should start 25yo in Arsenal's defence vs Real Madrid

05 April 2025 - 21:20

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta should continue with Jakub Kiwior in central defence against Real Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday.

  • Arsenal to hijack Chelsea deal for English winger?
  • Arsenal & Chelsea battling to sign Ajax defender

  • The Poland international has been a fringe player for the Gunners, but he has a huge role to play after Gabriel Magalhaes' season-ending injury.

    Kiwior came on early against Fulham on Tuesday and he went on to start against Everton today. He produced a man of the match performance.

    The 25-year-old had a passing accuracy of 94 percent with 70 touches. He managed four successful long ball and created one big chance of Leandro Trossard.

    Trossard was put through on goal by a brilliant long ball, but the Belgian could not execute a perfect finish. It proved costly in a 1-1 draw.

    Kiwior also blocked a Toffees shot in the opening half. It was a commanding display and he should start versus Los Blancos.

    Arsenal welcome Real Madrid to the Emirates Stadium for the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final on Tuesday night.
