Jurrien Timber, recently back in training for Arsenal after a lengthy injury layoff, showcased his skills by executing an impressive nutmeg on Bukayo Saka during a training session yesterday.
Arsenal fans were delighted when Jurrien Timber joined the club from Ajax last summer, with his versatility and promising performances during pre-season earning him admiration from supporters.
Unfortunately, Timber’s Arsenal debut was marred by a serious knee injury sustained on the opening day of the Premier League season, sidelining him for an extended period after undergoing surgery.
However, Timber’s return to training this week has injected optimism into the squad, with the Dutch international looking sharp and eager to make an impact once again.
In a recent training session captured by Arsenal, Timber demonstrated his quality by not only intercepting a pass from Bukayo Saka during a rondo drill but also expertly nutmegging the English winger moments later.

As Arsenal continues to compete for both the Premier League and Champions League titles, the return of key players like Thomas Partey, Gabriel Jesus, and Fabio Vieira, along with Timber’s imminent comeback, provides a significant boost to manager Mikel Arteta’s options and tactical flexibility.
With his ability to play across various positions on the pitch, Timber’s return could prove pivotal in Arsenal’s pursuit of silverware this season.
