Jakub Kiwior's arrival at Arsenal could be of huge significance to William Saliba and not solely because they are in line to be central defensive partners in the near future.
The 22-year-old was in attendance at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday afternoon to watch the Frenchman, Gabriel Magalhaes and eventually Rob Holding help the Gunners overcome Manchester United and just over 24 hours later it was announced that they are all now teammates.
"Jakub Kiwior has joined us from Spezia Calcio on a long-term contract," a statement via the club's official website reads. "The 22-year-old Polish international defender, who made 43 appearances during his time with the Italian side, was part of the national team squad at the recent FIFA World Cup in Qatar."
