PSG/Arsenal – Another player out for the Champions League final?

Jurriën Tomber, Arsenal’s 24-year-old Dutch defender, could join the list of absentees for the Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday, May 30. The usual starter on the right flank, sidelined with a groin injury since March 14, was indeed mentioned in rather worrying terms by Netherlands head coach Ronald Koeman on the Ziggo Rondo show.

“Jurriën has been dealing with this problem for quite some time now. He is training again to see whether he will be able to play in the Champions League final and whether he will be available for the World Cup. The outlook does not seem very encouraging at the moment.”

For now, Timber could still be ready for the final and the World Cup, but especially for the international tournament. The Dutchman is not certain to be fit against PSG, and he certainly would not be at 100% after more than two months out and a late return. It is hard to imagine him starting such a match.

The problem for Arsenal is that his main backup, Ben White (28), is already out. Christian Mosquera (21) could therefore feature, as he did against Burnley on Monday. Unless there is a very pleasant surprise with Timber, or Mikel Arteta pulls off something unexpected with a change to catch PSG off guard.
