Crystal Palace is targeting 24-year-old Marseille and Netherlands midfielder Quinten Timber, but faces competition from Aston Villa. The West Midlands club is currently leading the effort to sign him. It is understood that Timber is open to a Premier League move in the summer, and his potential transfer fee is estimated to be approximately €30 million. It is believed that both English clubs have the financial capacity to pay this amount, though it is not yet certain if either will submit an official offer. The Dutch international has 10 caps and one goal for his country. He joined Marseille from Feyenoord in January 2026 for a reported €4.5 million and his contract is valid until 2030. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €25.00m.
