There were initial concerns on Saturday that Timber has damaged his anterior cruciate ligament, but those fears are unconfirmed.

Arsenal handed huge injury boost ahead of EPL clash with Everton

Arsenal got a fitness boost on Sunday as defender Gabriel trained with his Brazil teammates. The centre-back had given Arsenal a fright on Friday when he was substituted late in Brazil’s 5-1 win over Bolivia in World Cup qualification. Gabriel, who was making his senior international debut in Belem, was later spotted resting on the bench with ice on his right leg. However, the 25-year-old trained with the Brazil team as usual in Lima on Sunday ahead of their next qualifier against Peru on Tuesday, putting to rest suspicions that he had been injured. The news comes as a huge relief for Arsenal, who have already been plagued by defensive injuries this season. Summer signing Jurrien Timber suffered a devastating knee injury on his Premier League debut against Nottingham Forest and will be out for several months following surgery. Meanwhile, Thomas Partey is out with a groin injury, and manager Mikel Arteta stated earlier this month that the Ghanian international will be out for “wee...

JUST IN: Fabrizio Romano drops worrying information on risky Arsenal transfer strategy under Mikel Arteta

Romano reviewed the latest contract termination in the newest edition of his exclusive CaughtOffside column , with Nicolas Pepe’s contract being revoked, allowing him to move from Arsenal to Trabzonspor on a free transfer. The Ivory Coast international was Arsenal’s record signing when he joined from Lille in 2019, but he never lived up to expectations at the Emirates Stadium, and it’s hardly surprising that he’s now been allowed to leave, even if it’s a bit of a bold move to allow the player to leave without even receiving a fee. This has occurred before with Mesut Ozil and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang at Arsenal, but Romano believes the club didn’t have much of a choice with Pepe, even if he admits it’s not the best financial policy. “Ideally, I’m sure Arsenal would have liked to bring in a fee for Pepe, who was their record signing back in 2019, but in the end his contract was terminated by the club, and it’s not the first time we’ve seen them take this decision since Mikel Arteta t...

Arsenal set to move for top rated Juventus star in boost to further strenghten the frontline

According to the Daily Express , Arsenal might finally get Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic in a cheap deal as the Serie A giants make him available in the January transfer window. The Gunners reportedly proposed £88 million for the 23-year-old while he was at Fiorentina in January 2022. However, the striker turned down a transfer to North London because Arsenal were not as appealing then as they are now. The Gunners had recently placed seventh and were not competing in any European tournament, so Vlahovic chose to join Juventus instead. According to the report, Juve spent £66 million plus add-ons for the Serbian international. Since joining the Old Lady, Vlahovic has struggled to make an impression at Allianz Stadium. Prior to joining Massimiliano Allegri’s team, he was considered as one of Italy’s top attackers due to his excellent goal-scoring exploits with Fiorentina. During his four years at Artemio Franchi Stadium, he made 108 appearances, scored 49 goals, and assisted on eigh...
