Arsenal are confident that they will soon be able to complete the signing of Jurrien Timber from Ajax. The 22-year-old Dutch international is keen to move to North London, despite interest from Bayern Munich and Manchester United.
Quinten Timber, brother of the player, recently confirmed Arsenal's interest in an interview with Dutch news outlet NOS. When asked if there had been an offer from the Gunners, he replied that he was unsure, making the future of his brother uncertain.
Mikel Arteta is looking to add Timber to the Arsenal squad due to his versatility. He is able to play both centre-half and right-back positions, with Ben White making the latter his own last season. Arteta is looking for players with a similar style of play to Oleksandr Zinchenko and Timber's ability on the ball and passing range make him a great fit for the team.
In addition to Timber, Arsenal are also confident of completing the signings of Kai Havertz and Declan Rice. The Gunners have already seen several bids for both players rejected by Chelsea and West Ham respectively. Despite this, they remain determined to bring them to the club.
It looks like Arsenal's transfer window is only just beginning. With several exciting additions in the works, it will be interesting to see how their squad looks come the start of the next season.
