Dylan Timber takes his first steps in professional football at FC Utrecht. The older brother of Quinten and Jurriën Timber has signed a two-year contract in De Galgenwaard on Tuesday afternoon. The 21-year-old defender comes from Third Division club Sparta Nijkerk. Dylan Timber follows the example of his brother Quinten, who exchanged Ajax for FC Utrecht last week. The brand new acquisition will initially connect with Jong FC Utrecht.
The central defender, who can also be used as a right back, is very happy with the opportunity that Utrecht offers him. “Born and raised in Utrecht, I am now here at FC Utrecht to take the next step in my career”, he says on the website of his new employer. “I am a defender who is comfortable on the ball. I love football, so I like to solve things by playing football. I am not afraid of a header duel, or even a duel at all. I certainly will not shy away from that! And with my speed can also be of added value. “

Dylan Timber thinks it is wonderful that he will play together with his brother Quinten from next season. “Very nice. He plays in the first, I start with Young. It is up to me to work my way up and eventually be on the field together. I am very proud of him and myself. I am also proud of my brothers and to my mother who brought me here. I’m looking forward to the way to the first. ” The Utrecht acquisition has a history in the youth academy of Feyenoord and has played for Sparta Nijkerk since last summer.
