Was Arsenal’s next big signing revealed online by accident?
If a leaked image on Arsenal’s website is proof enough, it looks like Jurrien Timber is set to be announced as the shooter.
The news was announced by top sports journalist Chris Wheatley on Gooner News on Wednesday, July 12. He directed his readers to a tweet from the very insightful Met @AFCMet, which somehow spotted Timber’s team photo hidden behind the club’s website code.
It looks like Timber’s announcement is imminent…#
The Ajax defender was due to arrive at the Emirates Stadium, but this latest news could be just what Gunners fans have been hoping for. The addition of Timber to Mikel Arteta’s squad may be just another big step towards winning the Premier League title that was almost within reach last season.
Declan Rice is expected to be revealed as an Arsenal player in the coming days. The West Ham captain is set to cross London for an estimated transfer fee of £105million.
Should the Dutchman also join the team, it would push Arsenal’s summer spending spree past the £200m mark, with a transfer fee of £38.5m plus bonuses likely.

The Gunners kicked off their pre-season friendlies last night, Thursday 12th, at the Max Morlock Stadium with a game against German club FC Nuremberg. The end result was a 1-1 draw, with new signing Kai Havertz making his debut in the famous red and white jersey. The former Chelsea star competed alongside Aaron Ramsdale, Gabriel Jesus and Jorginho.
Bukayo Saka was on target after just seven minutes and headed the ball into the bottom corner of the goal.

If Arteta thought his men would have an easy game against the Bundesliga second division side, he would be in for a shock. In the 78th minute, the Germans managed to equalize and it stayed that way. While friendlies are designed to help the manager see how his players will adapt to the new season, he probably would have preferred to walk away with a win in his pocket.
Speaking to reporters after the game, he said of the game: “The way we played in the first half was really good and I think we could have scored more goals, also in the second half we had two great, great chances to score and we didn’t It’s part of football and mistakes are part of sport.”
Arteta said nothing about further arrivals: ‘We are currently working with the group of players who are here. We don’t have anything to announce yet and when it’s ready you’ll be the first to know.” Thank you for taking the time to read this article.
