Jurrien Timber has successfully come through a first training session back with the Arsenal team, in the hope of making a return for Saturday’s Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain in Budapest.
The 24-year-old has not played since a 2-0 win over Everton on 14 March, having been forced off that match with a groin injury. That has left him enduring 70 days without football, which would give Mikel Arteta a big decision even he is match-fit or not.
