The first player to be rated 10 this season

Jurrien Timber becomes the first star from Europe's top five major leagues to be rated 10 by Sofascore since the start of the 2025/26 season.

Timber scored a perfect 10 on Sofascore – a rare milestone.

In the early morning of August 24, Jurrien Timber scored 2 goals and had 1 assist to help Arsenal sink Leeds United 4-0 in round 2 of the Premier League. After the match, Sofascore gave the Dutch defender a score of 10, making him the only player since the beginning of the 2025/26 season to receive an absolute score.

This is also the first time in nearly 9 years that a "Gunners" star has achieved a perfect score of 10 on Sofascore 's scale. Previously, Alexis Sanchez (in 2016) and Mesut Ozil (in 2015) were the last Arsenal players to receive a perfect score.

Sofascore assessed that since the beginning of the season, no player in the top 5 major European leagues has had a comprehensive performance in both attack and defense, as Timber did against Leeds United. Not only did he score 2 goals and have 1 assist, an unbelievable number for a defender, the Dutch star also had a perfect defensive performance.

He won 6/9 challenges, made 2 interceptions, completed 4 tackles and did not let an opponent get past him in the match. Timber proved his worth after returning from a serious knee injury in 2024. The match against Leeds was the perfect start for Timber, and Arsenal fans will be looking forward to seeing him continue to shine in the upcoming matches.
