Peter Kioso (born 15 August 1999) is an Irish professional footballer who plays as a right back for Milton Keynes Dons, on loan from Championship side Luton Town.
Early life[]
Kioso was born in Swords, Dublin.[1][2] He and his family later moved to Milton Keynes, England in 2010.[3]
Club career[]
Early career[]
Kioso joined the academy of Milton Keynes Dons at the age of 14 and progressed to the club's under-18 side before being released in 2017.[3] He had a brief spell with non-league Dunstable Town[4] before joining National League club Hartlepool United[3][2][5] where he remained for two seasons, making 70 appearances and scoring 4 goals.[3]
Luton Town[]
On 22 January 2020, Kioso joined Championship club Luton Town for an undisclosed fee.[6] Luton manager Graeme Jones said Kioso was "one for the future",[7] and in March 2020 said he had been "impressed" by Kioso in training, and would consider giving him his debut.[8] He made his Football League debut for Luton on 18 July 2020.[9]
On 15 October 2020 he moved on loan to League Two club Bolton Wanderers.[10] He made his debut two days later in a 1–2 home defeat against Oldham Athletic.[11] Two days after that he scored Bolton's first goal in a 3–3 draw against Barrow.[11] On 11 January 2021 Luton recalled Kioso from his loan after an injury to James Bree.[12]
On 25 January 2021, Kioso joined League One side Northampton Town on loan for the remainder of the 2020–21 season.[13] Kioso had already played for Luton and Bolton in the 2020–2021 season, usually meaning he wouldn't be able to sign for a third team as players can only play for two teams in one season – however FIFA changed the rules for that season to allow players to play for three teams, to alleviate the effects of the coronavirus pandemic on football.[14]
He returned to his academy club Milton Keynes Dons on loan on 31 August 2021.[15][16] Kioso scored his first goal since his return to the club on 18 September 2021 in a 4–1 away win over Gillingham.[17]
Personal life[]
Kioso's parents are from DR Congo.[1] His brother Gedeon is also a footballer; the two played together at Dunstable Town, with Peter at right back and his brother at left back.[4][18] His cousin Pelly-Ruddock Mpanzu is also a footballer; the two play together at Luton Town.[19]
