Although Kiwior may not have an immediate impact on the team due to Gabriel and William Saliba's excellent performances this season, his versatility could make him a useful squad option.
Kiwior is still in his prime at the age of 22, so he shouldn't be concerned if he doesn't break into the starting eleven right away.
Kiwior is also a left-footed centre-back, making him an ideal candidate to compete with Gabriel in this position, with Rob Holding and Ben White better suited to the right side.
