During the January transfer window, Nottingham Forest, West Ham, and Crystal Palace made an enquiry for Feyenoord's 24-year-old midfielder Quinten Timber, with all three clubs looking to strengthen their midfield. According to sources, discussions took place between the player's representatives and the interested Premier League clubs. However, Timber rejected these approaches, stating that his preference was to continue his career on the continent at this stage. The Netherlands international has 8 caps and 1 goal for his country and ultimately approved a transfer to Marseille. Marseille secured a €4.5m deal as the player's contract in Rotterdam was expiring in the summer. In the 2025/2026 Eredivisie season, he has recorded 2 goals and 4 assists in 17 appearances, and his current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €25.00m.
