The Dutch international played as a right-back for ninety minutes and is experiencing his big breakthrough in the Premier League this season.

His development is reflected in his Estimated Transfer Value (ETV), which has reached a record high this month.

Things are going well for Timber at Arsenal this season. Although the league title is no longer in the picture, the Gunners< still have a chance of winning the Champions League.

Mikel Arteta has consistently called upon Timber this season, who has already played no fewer than 43 games. A considerable difference compared to last season, when the versatile defender was sidelined for almost the entire competition with an injury and missed a whopping 53 games.

Timber's value explodes

Timber, now 23, has been a key player at Arsenal this season, and that is reflected in his Estimated Transfer Value. Due to his lingering injury last season, his ETV dropped drastically.

Last summer, the 18-time Netherlands international had an ETV of €26.4 million. This was Timber's lowest point since his arrival at Arsenal in 2023. The Gunners had paid Ajax an amount of €40m at the time to pry the defender away.

However, since Timber has been playing a lot this season, his ETV has increased massively again. In December, Timber boasted a value of €48.7m, which was a record for the defender at the time.

His ETV only increased even further in the months that followed. Last month, the Dutchman had an ETV of €53.8m. That was a huge increase of €27.4m since the start of this season.

The ETV update for April shows that Timber's value has increased yet more. The Arsenal defender currently now has an ETV of no less than €62.7m, €22.7m more than Arsenal paid for him and €36.3m more than his ETV from August.
