Jurrien Timber has two perfect shirt number options at Arsenal after William Saliba announcement

In the past week alone, Arsenal have confirmed new contracts for William Saliba and Reiss Nelson as well as bid a farewell to Pablo Mari and Granit Xhaka who have joined Monza and Bayer Leverkusen respectively on permanent deals.

When also factoring in the £65million signing of Kai Havertz from Chelsea, to have got so much business done before the first pre-season fixture is a positive heading into the new campaign and considering the summer transfer window does not close for another eight weeks, the Gunners are just getting started.

In fact, the next two deals have already been mapped out. As reported by football.london earlier in the week, Arsenal have reached an agreement with Ajax to sign versatile defender Jurrien Timber for an initial €40million (£34.2million) fee that could rise to €45million (£38.5million) if certain add-ons are met.
