SHOCKING: Arsenal fear lengthy injury for Jurrien Timber after he was diagnosed with knee injury sustained in the Gunners’ opening Premier League win over Nottingham Forest- Player to return on….
Arsenal fear £40m new boy Jurrien Timber could be out for MONTHS with a serious knee injury sustained in the Gunners’ opening Premier League win over Nottingham Forest
- Jurrien Timber was forced off injured in his Premier League debut on Sunday
- The Arsenal new boy could now face months on the sidelines with a knee injury
Timber was handed an instant competitive debut against Forest on the opening weekend of the season following his arrival from Ajax earlier in the summer.
Timber has been undergoing various tests and scans as Arsenal medics look to assess the extent of the damage.
But Mail Sport understands there are major concerns that Timber may have suffered a significant knee ligament injury that will keep him sidelined for months rather than weeks.
There were initial concerns on Saturday that Timber has damaged his anterior cruciate ligament, but those fears are unconfirmed.
Any news of a lengthy lay off will come as a huge blow to Mikel Arteta, who has been impressed by the way Timber has adapted to life in England.
