Mikel Arteta has confirmed that Thomas Partey has completed training sessions at Arsenal and may be eligible for selection this upcoming weekend. Partey’s involvement has been limited this season, with the Ghanaian midfielder featuring in only four league games due to ongoing injury issues. Despite speculation about his departure from the club in the summer, Arsenal remains hopeful that he will remain fit and contribute to their pursuit of the title until the season’s end.
Since sustaining an injury last year and subsequently missing the AFCON for Ghana, Partey’s return to action has been eagerly awaited. While Arsenal has been cautious not to rush his comeback, Partey’s recent participation in consecutive training sessions signals his readiness to return. Arteta expressed optimism about Partey’s availability, stating to Arsenal Media, “Thomas had a session before the last game and now he’s done two consecutive sessions so he should be part of the squad on Monday.”
The news of Partey’s potential return has been met with enthusiasm by Arsenal supporters, who acknowledge his influential presence in midfield has been missed. Despite the uncertainty surrounding his future at the club, if Partey is fit, he possesses the ability to positively impact game outcomes. While it’s unlikely he’ll start the match immediately, those who do take the field are urged to give their utmost for the team.
