Arsenal have completed the signing of Jurrien Timber from Ajax for a fee of £40million.
The Dutchman becomes the Gunners second signing of the summer transfer window following the arrival of Kai Havertz from Chelsea last month.
Timber, 22, has signed a five-year deal with the club after Arsenal made a fresh bid for the defender last week. Their initial £30m bid for the defender had been turned down.
Ajax had been holding out for a deal closer to £50m for the 22-year-old but the player's desire to move to north London saw the two clubs reach an agreement.
