Arsenal’s Jurrien Timber could be set to miss next summer’s European Championship, according to reports in the Netherlands.
The defender underwent surgery in August on an anterior cruciate ligament injury he suffered just 50 minutes into his Arsenal debut. It was hoped he’s still be able to feature in the latter part of the campaign.
However, reports in the Netherlands have cast doubt on his chances of taking the field again this term as Timber in unlikely to make Ronald Koeman’s squad for next summer’s European Championship in Germany.
Gunners’ fans were readying themselves for the former Ajax’s star return in the new year but his comeback may be a little further off than initially anticipated.
The Netherlands secured their place at next summer’s tournament by finishing second in a qualifying group that included France and an improved Greece.
