Timber's Recovery Progress
According to Voetbal International, Mikel Arteta has confirmed that Jurriën Timber's recovery is going well. The Arsenal manager stated that Timber's progress is excellent, but the player will not play for a while. This is due to a groin injury that Timber suffered, which meant he missed the World Cup.
Arsenal's Upcoming Fixtures
Arsenal will start their Premier League title defence with a home match against Coventry City. This match will be a crucial test for the team, who will be looking to build momentum after a strong pre-season. Meanwhile, Oranje will meet again in about a month and a half for four Nations League matches.
Next Steps
The next step for Timber will be to continue his recovery and work on his fitness. Arteta will closely monitor his progress and make a decision on his availability for future matches. It is unlikely that Timber will be ready for the Community Shield match against Manchester City, but he is on the right track.
