Arsenal handed major injury boost for PSG game

Timber back for PSG

Arsenal have been handed a massive double injury boost ahead of the Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain in Budapest, Hungary tomorrow.


The Gunners go into the final as underdogs, given Les Parisiens won the elite European competition last season, and are regarded as the favourites to repeat the feat.

Ahead of the crunch encounter, manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed that Jurrien Timber and Noni Madueke are fully fit to face Les Parisiens in Hungary.

Timber has not played a competitive game since the 2-0 Premier League win over Everton in mid-March. He has been nursing a groin issue for several weeks.

The Dutch right-back returned to team training earlier this week, and Arteta has now confirmed that he is in contention to start the final despite his lengthy lay-off.

Timber's return is a huge boost for the north London giants. He is brilliant in winning one-on-one duels and could be key to keeping Khvicha Kvaratskhelia quiet.
