Zinchenko: “An incredible signing for Arsenal”
Oleksandr Zinchenko speaks highly of the talent of Arsenal’s new recruit while showering praise on the Dutch defender (according to Metro).
Jurrien Timber is one of the notable signings for Arsenal this summer. The Dutch star arrived at the Emirates from Ajax. Timber has shown his versatility, excelling both as a center-back and a right-back. Arsenal managed to beat out competition from Manchester United and Bayern Munich to secure the 22-year-old’s signature.
Timber wasted no time in adapting to the atmosphere, his new teammates, and the playing style at Arsenal. Oleksandr Zinchenko is impressed with Timber’s abilities and does not hesitate to compliment the former Ajax defender.
According to Metro, Zinchenko stated: “He plays a similar style to me, but Timber is even better. I’m 100% sure Timber will prove his worth and be a valuable asset to Arsenal’s playing style. I know his talent well from watching him play at Ajax.”
“I had the chance to face Timber while representing my national team. I saw his fantastic qualities. Timber is an outstanding young man and an incredible signing for Arsenal. He will be of great help to us.”
Timber is one of Arsenal’s three summer signings, alongside Kai Havertz and Declan Rice. Arsenal is also pursuing their fourth signing this summer by approaching Brentford’s David Raya.
