Crystal Palace announce Quinten Timber signing

Crystal Palace have completed the signing of Quinten Timber from Marseille , with the midfielder joining the Premier League club ahead of the transfer deadline.

The 25-year-old has signed a contract until 2031 after leaving Marseille just months after arriving at the French club in January. Marseille's financial problems have forced them to part with several key players this summer.

Timber has long been linked with a move to England, particularly since his twin brother Jurrien joined Arsenal in 2023. He now follows his sibling to the Premier League after establishing himself as a major player in the Netherlands.

The midfielder enjoyed a successful spell with Feyenoord , winning the Eredivisie and Dutch Cup while also serving as club captain. He was part of the Netherlands squad at this summer's World Cup and has earned 13 international caps.

Timber becomes the latest addition to Pierre Sage 's Palace squad as the Eagles strengthen ahead of the new Premier League and Europa League campaigns.
