Arsenal may finally have a potential return date for central defender Jurrien Timber.

The centre-half, who can also play at right-back and in midfield, suffered an ACL tear at the start of the season.

However, the 22-year-old now appears to be on the mend, as he is targeting a February return.

Per @MoArsenal86 on X, Arsenal are penciling in Timber for their Champions League knockout stage ties with FC Porto in the New Year.

Football.london had previously claimed that his return first-team action would be anytime between March and May.

The Gunners will not want to rush back the player only for it to result in long-term problems.
