The
24-year-old joined Chesterfield in early October 2020. He had a previous spell
at the club, scoring 4 goals in 14 appearances whilst on loan from League One
side Doncaster Rovers in 2018/19.
The
nephew of former Arsenal and Ipswich striker Chris Kiwomya, he was at Chelsea
from the age of 14 but failed to make a first-team appearance.
A
former England under-16, 17, 18 and under-19 international, he had loan spells
with Barnsley and Fleetwood Town and then spent the 2016/17 season on loan at
Crewe Alexandra, scoring 7 goals in 34 League Two appearances before being
released by Chelsea and signing for Doncaster in the summer of 2017.
His
first year with Doncaster saw Kiwomya’s career put on hold, having contracted
the rare auto-immune disorder Guillain-Barré syndrome which required intensive
fitness work to recover from.
But
after his recovery, he failed to break through for successive managers at
Rovers, making just 8 appearances as well as loan stints at Chorley and the
Spireites. |
