Crystal Palace are exploring the possibility of signing Quinten Timber, twin brother of Arsenal defender Jurrien Timber. The 25-year-old Netherlands international made 16 appearances for Marseille last season after joining them from Feyenoord in January. While Marseille currently values him at around €22 million, reports suggest that Crystal Palace have included Timber on a shortlist of midfield targets alongside Kevin Danois.
Porto is also reportedly interested in the player, potentially offering between €15 million and €18 million, though that valuation is reportedly below Marseille's figure. Timber is believed to prefer a move to the Premier League, but Crystal Palace's interest appears to be at an exploratory stage at this time.
