Netherlands defender Jurrien Timber has been undergoing a managed recovery process following a recurring groin injury. Initially, Timber was absent from group training sessions during the Netherlands' Nations League preparations, instead following an individual training program to prevent re-injury. This approach was coordinated through consultations between Arsenal’s medical staff and the Dutch national team coaching staff.

Following this period of careful fitness management, Timber was subsequently named in the matchday squad for the Nations League fixture against Serbia. While his playing time continues to be monitored, he has been made available as a substitute.
