Jurrien Timber

 

Arsenal have given an update on the injury of their new player, Jurrien Timber, who limped off the pitch during Saturday lunch hour match against Nottingham Forest. He got a knock in the knee area.

Timber acquired from Dutch side, Ajax, has proved a real playmaker in defence, midfield and even attack, showing calmness, ball control, vision, ability to man-mark and  courage to attack, a typical Arsenal player.

Below is the statement from Arsenal:

Further to his substitution during our match against Nottingham Forest on Saturday, Jurrien Timber has received extensive assessments and scans which have confirmed he has sustained an injury to his right knee.

Jurrien will undergo a further detailed assessment and review with a consultant in the coming days to assess the full extent of the injury, in order to determine the next steps. A further update will be provided in due course.

Everyone at the club will be focused on supporting Jurrien at this time.
