Timber drops biblical quote ahead of UCL final
Arsenal defender Jurrien Timber has sparked widespread reaction on social media with a message ahead of the UEFA Champions League final.
The Dutch international shared a Bible verse on his official X account, posting Proverbs 21:31 before Arsenal's showdown with Paris Saint-Germain in Budapest.
According to the King James Version, the verse reads:
“The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the Lord.”
The former Ajax star is known for sharing biblical passages before important matches, a tradition that has attracted attention among Arsenal supporters.
Timber's scripture posts gained significant traction during Arsenal's impressive Champions League quarter-final victory over Real Madrid last season, and he has once again turned to his faith ahead of one of the biggest games of his career.
The 24-year-old is expected to start for the Gunners as Mikel Arteta's side bid to win their first-ever Champions League title.
