He scored his first goal on 25 March 2019 in a 3–3 draw with Jong FC Utrecht.[7]

Feyenoord

[edit | edit source]

On 28 July 2022, Feyenoord announced that it had signed Timber on a four-year contract,[9] with FC Utrecht announcing that Timber became the most expensive outgoing player in the club's history to date.[10] The transfer fee was reported as €8.5 million, a record also for Feyenoord.[11] He scored his first goal for the club on 27 August 2022, scoring the first goal in a 4–0 win over FC Emmen.[12] On 13 September 2024, Timber was appointed as the new captain of the club.[13]

Timber received his first call-up to the Netherlands national team in March 2024 for friendlies against Scotland and Germany.[14] He made his debut as a substitution on 26 March 2024 against Germany.[15] On 16 May 2024, it was announced that Timber was part of the preliminary squad for UEFA Euro 2024.[16] Later that month, on 29 May, he was excluded from the final 26-man squad.[17] Timber scored his first goal for the Netherlands in a 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying match against Lithuania.

Personal life

[edit | edit source]

Born in the Netherlands, Timber and his twin brother Jurriën, who is also a footballer, are of Curaçaoan descent. Both their mother Marilyn and their father are from Curaçao, part of the ABC Islands in the Dutch Caribbean. Due to situations in the past, the family took on their maternal name Timber instead of taking the last name of their father Maduro.[18] The twins also have three older brothers Shamier, Chris, and Dylan, the latter of whom is also a footballer who plays for Curaçao on an international level.[19]
