Arsenal defender Jurrien Timber is set to be sidelined for a significant portion of the upcoming season after suffering an unfortunate ACL tear. The club confirmed this distressing news, revealing that Timber’s road to recovery will span around 6 to 7 months.
Timber, who had recently joined Arsenal from Ajax in the summer transfer window, was anticipated to make a notable impact on the Premier League stage.
