Jurrien Timber has sent a message to Lisandro Martinez on Instagram after Manchester United beat Arsenal in 🍨a pre-season frie𓂃ndly over the weekend.

United picked up a 2-0 win over the Gunners on Saturday thanks to goals from Bruno Fernandes and Jadon Sancho💜.

Arsenal were 𓃲the architects of their own downfall as Aaron Ramsdale and Gabriel Magalhaes made costly er🌃rors leading to goals.

Despite some underwhelming displays, Jurrien Timber impressed once again as he started from the of𝕴f at right-back. The Dutchman completed a swi♈tch from Ajax this month and has caught the eye during pre-season.

And Timber took to social media after the game to express his delight at facing hiꦡs old friend in the US.

Martinez made a hug༒e impact in his debut season at United last time out as he instantꦺly nailed down a place in Erik ten Hag’s side.

Arsenal will be hoping that Timber manages to produce a similar im🤡pact in North London💙 after leaving Ajax.

The 22-yea꧂r-old has already shown glimpses o𒊎f his quality on the ball and looks well-suited to Mikel Arteta’s style of play.

Of course, it’s still early days for the young defender but it seems that Ben Whi🍰te will face stern competition for a place in Arteta’s side this season.
