Arsenal given green light to complete Jurrien Timber transfer as FIFA open second window today

Any summer transfer window can be split into two as unlike deals completed in January, things are not exactly straightforward to begin with.

Part one saw the transfer window open on Wednesday, June 14 but only for all clubs in England and Scotland. As a result, as per FIFA's ruling, players signed from Premier League, EFL and Scottish teams could be registered immediately which was the case for Kai Havertz upon sealing a £65million move to Arsenal from Chelsea.

Of course, the same has applied with regard to the Gunners' pursuit of West Ham United captain Declan Rice. However, after finally reaching an agreement, in principle, over a club-record £105million transfer, after seeing two bids rejected, Mikel Arteta's side will not reap any benefits of completing this deal in June.
