Mikel Arteta and arsenal doing good so far during this summer transfer window. The gunners have taken a huge step towards securing their second signing of the summer transfer window.
Reports understands that the Gunners are keen to bolster their options at the back, with Mikel Arteta interested in Timber. The Dutch international makes a lot of sense considering his versatility, something that Arteta has consistently made no secret of his admiration for in the past.
Arsenal have reportedly agreed an initial €42million (£36million) transfer fee to sign Ajax defender Jurrien Timber. The deal could rise to €47million (£40million) if additional add-ons are met.
The report states that the Gunners have now reached a verbal agreement on a fee with Ajax, having already tied up personal terms on a ‘lucrative’ contract with Timber this week. All that remains before a transfer can be completed is a medical and paperwork.
