Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has been spotted meeting Quinten Timber, the brother of current Gunners defender Jurrien Timber and a reported transfer target for the club. The encounter comes as Arsenal prepare for a potentially active January transfer window, aiming to strengthen their squad for the latter half of the Premier League season.
Currently sitting fourth in the league, Arsenal endured a tough end to the year with back-to-back defeats that cost them the top spot. Despite this, they remain firmly in the title race, with only a few points separating the leading teams. The upcoming transfer window could play a crucial role in determining the outcome of their campaign, with key signings potentially shifting momentum.
However, Arsenal’s financial constraints may influence their activity, as they already invested £200 million during the summer. football.london reports that the club is exploring the loan market for reinforcements, though this hasn’t stopped rumors of permanent signings, including Quinten Timber.
Quinten, a midfielder for Feyenoord, has been in impressive form this season, featuring in every Eredivisie game and helping his side maintain second place in the league. His performances, coupled with his brother Jurrien’s summer move to Arsenal, have reportedly put him on the Gunners’ radar.
Speculation intensified recently after Jurrien Timber shared a video on Instagram showing Quinten at the Emirates Stadium, where he was seen meeting and chatting with Henry. The footage, shared by @afcstuff, captured the pair embracing and conversing, sparking further rumors about a potential transfer.
While there’s no confirmation that their discussion involved a move to Arsenal, the meeting has only fueled speculation as the January window approaches.
