Ajax defender Jurrien Timber wants to join Arsenal
Exciting and encouraging update
In our view, that Jurrien Timber has agreed personal terms with Arsenal and wants to move to the Emirates Stadium is hugely encouraging for the Gunners.
Now, of course, Ajax will want Arsenal to pay the transfer fee that they want, but at least the Gunners have already convinced the youngster about a potential move to the North London club.
That Timber wants to move to Arsenal could also affect Ajax in their stance.
After all, the Dutch giants will not want to keep a player who wants to leave.
Arsenal fans should be excited and encouraged by this latest update on the future of Timber.
