The Gunners recently played out a 1-1 draw against Brighton & Hove Albion. They were on course for a routine victory before Declan Rice 's sending off.

In the same game, Jurrien Timber was substituted in the second half with an injury concern, but manager Mikel Arteta said that he was cramping.

The Gunners have now received a timely boost with Timber back in full training with the Netherlands ahead of their Nations League games.

The Dutchman had a forgettable debut season with Arsenal . He made just two appearances in the league after a serious knee ligament injury.

He has returned in tip-top shape for the current campaign and the fans will be hoping that he can stay unscathed for the rest of the season.

Timber could line up in midfield for the north London derby with Rice unavailable for the game after his unfortunate sending off.
