Virgil van Dijk will be hoping Jurrien Timber prediction doesn't come true after £38.6m Arsenal deal

Arsenal have reached an agreement to sign Ajax defender Jurrien Timber, according to reports.

Mikel Arteta is moving quickly in the transfer window as he looks to bolster his squad after their disappointing end to the Premier League campaign. Despite being at the summit for most of the season, Manchester City eventually stole a march and went on to regain their title on the way to winning the Treble.

Arsenal, who eventually finished five points behind City in second, have already signed Kai Havertz from Chelsea for £65m. And they have now agreed a £38.6m deal for Timber and a £105m deal for West Ham United captain Declan Rice.
