A warning shot has been fired by a former Manchester United star, suggesting that Mikel Arteta’s decision on a particular Arsenal player could be make or break for their title hopes.
Jurrien Timber, the young talent sidelined by injury since the season’s start, is gearing up for a comeback as Arsenal prepares to take on Bournemouth in a crucial Premier League showdown.
After battling an ACL injury sustained against Nottingham Forest, Timber has been steadily working towards recovery, even impressing with appearances for the Under-21s, including a standout goal against Blackburn Rovers.
Though narrowly missing out on the recent North London derby squad, Timber’s return to Premier League action seems imminent, with reports indicating his inclusion against Bournemouth and his own confidence in readiness.
Having proven his fitness with game time in youth matches and uninterrupted training sessions, Timber’s reintroduction could inject much-needed offensive prowess to Arsenal’s lineup, a sentiment echoed by Arteta.
Timber himself is eager to make his mark after a prolonged absence, ready to contribute to Arsenal’s season finale.
With Bournemouth posing a tough challenge and Arsenal eyeing a chance to extend their league lead, the anticipation around Timber’s potential return adds extra excitement for fans ahead of the clash.
