Arsenal's options at centre-back have run thin on the ground this season following William Saliba's season-ending injury in March.
Rob Holding had filled in for six games following the Frenchman's injury. In these fixtures, the Gunners conceded 13 goals. January signing Jakub Kiwior has since come in and provided glimpses of what to expect in the future.
Yet the defensive fragilities have been played as one of the main reasons for Arsenal's Premier League title collapse. With the summer transfer window around the corner, it's likely that Mikel Arteta will seek defensive reinforcements.
