Champions League: Ian Wright names Arsenal player Real Madrid will target

Published on April 02, 2025 at 07:46 AM

Arsenal legend, Ian Wright, has admitted he is worried Real Madrid will “exploit” Jakub Kiwior during their Champions League quarter-final next week.

The Gunners lost Gabriel Magalhaes to a hamstring injury during their 2-1 win over Fulham on Tuesday night.

Gabriel was replaced by Kiwior, who put in an average performance.

Arsenal boss, Mikel Arteta, admitted afterwards that he is “worried” over the extent of Gabriel’s injury.

Arteta could also be without Ben White, who failed to make the matchday squad against Fulham, and Jurrien Timber, who was replaced in the second half at the Emirates Stadium.

Wright is concerned about Arsenal’s defensive solidity without Gabriel.

“Without Gabi Magalhaes in that game you’re looking at Kiwior even today [against Fulham], there’s a couple of positional moves that you just cannot afford to do when you play against Real Madrid.

“They are looking for any chink in the armour to exploit, so you need people who are absolutely bang on it, to be able to keep Real Madrid to no goals at home.

“If Gabi Magalhaes was there I would feel more confident about that,” Wright told Premier League Productions.
