Out? The reason for absence of Arsenal defender in the first match of the season has been named

Arsenal hosted Wolverhampton at the Emirates Stadium in the opening round of the Premier League.

Polish defender Jakub Kiwior was notably absent from the Gunners' squad. Renowned insider Fabrizio Romano shed light on the situation with the defender.

According to Romano, Kiwior was left out of Arsenal's squad due to a decision by the coaching staff. The left-back is not injured.

It's noted that the Polish defender could still leave before the end of the transfer window, but no agreements have been reached with any club so far. However, this situation could still change.

Previously, it was reported that Kiwior might move to Serie A this summer.

To recall, Arsenal signed Jakub Kiwior last winter for €25 million from Spezia. Before that, he played for the youth team of Anderlecht, as well as Železničar and Žilina.
