Arsenal is active in the transfer market and is ready to attack on all fronts next season.

Initially, the team coached by Mikel Arteta introduced Kai Havertz, who was brought from Chelsea for 70 million euros, and on Friday, the Gunners completed their second transfer this summer.

It is about the football player Jurrien Timber, who moved from Amsterdam “Ajax” for 40 million euros and plays in the position of central defender.

The 22-year-old Dutch defender signed a 5-year contract with the Emirates team.

Timber began his youth career in the academy of Feyenoord Rotterdam, but as a youth he made a step to the football school of “Spys” in 2014.

Jurrien Timber played a total of 121 matches for Ajax’s main team, scoring 6 goals and making 4 assists.

In 2021, he also made his debut in the Netherlands national team, for which he has already collected 15 matches.

With Ajax Amsterdam, the player won two Eredivisie titles and the Dutch Cup.

Last year, he received the title of the best football player of the Netherlands, and in 2018 he became the European champion as part of the national team under 17 years of age.
