Ahead of the Premier League kick-off this weekend, Jurrien Timber is keen to enjoy everything surrounding his first season in England, especially now he is playing for his boyhood club.

The summer recruit from Ajax has impressed many with his pre-season displays as he continues to gel with his new teammates, and he hopes he’s done enough to earn a spot in Mikel Arteta’s starting XI when Nottingham Forest come to north London on Saturday.

He admits that would see him fulfil a childhood dream of representing us at Emirates Stadium, which he hopes would be the first highlight of many over the coming months as he looks forward to playing in the biggest league in the world week in, week out.
