According to reports, Arsenal has made good strides towards acquiring Jurrien Timber.
The Gunners and Ajax are in advanced negotiations over the 22-year-old defender, according to Sky Sports.
There is a sense that an agreement on the price between Arsenal and Timber’s club is approaching.
Additionally, the report asserts that Timber shouldn’t have any issues with personal terms prior to a move to Arsenal.
According to journalist Graeme Bailey, the Gunners are about to make a “fantastic” and “staggering” acquisition.
This is because, in addition to acquiring a star player, Arsenal also appears to have done so at a bargain price.
Bailey told the Talking Transfers podcast, “Fantastic deal.”
“The terms are surprising. He is earning less than £115,000 per week. It’s truly astonishing.
“It appears that Ajax has lowered their asking price; they are now asking for 50 million Euros.
“This transaction is almost complete. I think he’s a great fit for most Premier League clubs, and I think this is a fantastic signing.
superiority and adaptability
Timber is a player with a very high ceiling who is extremely talented and exciting.
The 22-year-old plays frequently for both club and nation.
He has played 121 times for his club and made 47 appearances for Ajax last season.
Timber, meanwhile, has 15 caps for the Netherlands and played four times at the most recent World Cup.
Timber can play at right-back but is primarily a center-back.
This obviously helps an Arsenal team that has had problems there.
Kai Havertz has reportedly signed with the Gunners, and an announcement is reportedly coming soon.
As Arsenal looks to build on their title run from the previous season, Timber would be a fantastic second addition to the team.
Another transfer saga to follow involves Declan Rice and the Gunners.
Before August even arrives, Arsenal makes three top acquisitions. perhaps July? Let’s see what happens.
