BREAKING: Jurrien Timber finally returns to Arsenal training as Mikel Arteta handed six-man boost

Jurrien Timber has made his long-awaited return to team training – the latest step in his recovery from a long-term knee injury.

The Dutchman, who sustained the ACL rupture on his Premier League debut back in August, received a warm welcome from his teammates at Wednesday’s special training session at Emirates Stadium.

Following a flawless February, our squad’s next test in the league is an away trip to Bramall Lane to face Sheffield United. The match kicks off at 8pm GMT on Monday evening.
