Bielik has made two first-team appearances for Arsenal, the most recent of which coming when Arsenal beat Nottingham Forest 4-0 in the EFL Cup. The young Pole is highly regarded by Arsenal, with Arsene Wenger highlighting him as a potential star player for the club in the future.
“He has all the qualities and ingredients to be a top-level centre-back.”“The one thing he is missing is the experience in this position because he came to us as a central midfielder, but I converted him because I felt he can play the type of football we want to play as a centre-back.”
