Arsenal's midfield anchor, Thomas Partey, has encountered another setback in his return to action, suffering a fresh injury just days after rejoining group training with his teammates. The Ghanaian midfielder, who had been on the brink of making a comeback, now faces an extended spell on the sidelines due to this unforeseen setback.
Manager Mikel Arteta expressed disappointment over Partey's situation, stating, “Thomas unfortunately had a little setback a few days ago. He’s not going to be available in the squad.” Arteta went on to elaborate that the player felt discomfort in a similar area to his previous injury, preventing him from participating in training sessions for the past few days. The uncertainty looms over the duration of Partey's absence, with Arteta acknowledging, “We don’t know if it’s a few days or weeks.”
This latest injury blow compounds Partey's frustrating spell on the sidelines, as he has been out of action since October. Arsenal fans will now have to wait even longer for the return of their midfield maestro, raising concerns about the team's stability in the center of the park in Partey's absence.
