Arsenal made a significant investment of £34 million ($42m) to secure the talented Dutch international from Ajax during the summer of 2023. At 22 years old, he was anticipated to secure a regular position within the Premier League giants’ squad. However, his hopes were dashed when he suffered an unfortunate ACL injury during the opening weekend of the 2023-24 season.
Since then, Timber has been on a lengthy journey to recovery. When asked for an update on the dynamic full-back and his potential return, Mikel Arteta commented, “Still he’s got a few steps to make. He needs to play at least a game with the 23s. We’re going to have an in house game too. He’s done everything in training now it’s about getting him match fit.”
Arsenal is scheduled to face Aston Villa on Sunday. There are indications that Gabriel Magalhaes may be dealing with an injury concern ahead of the match. Arteta mentioned, “We have one more day to prepare for the match, and we’ll assess everyone’s availability.”
Heading into the encounter with Aston Villa, Arsenal currently holds the top spot in the Premier League standings. However, they are only ahead of Liverpool on goal difference, while Manchester City, the defending champions, trail by just one point with seven games remaining.
