Thomas Partey not leaving Arsenal this summer
The Ghanian midfielder has struggled with persistent injury problems over the past few seasons and there were rumours he would leave Arsenal this summer. But, Mikel Arteta has decided to keep Partey for the upcoming Premier League season, dismissing any potential move this summer window.
Partey could be a very instrumental player for Arsenal if he remains injury-free throughout the season. His last season was marred by injuries, but his influence in the middle of the park is undeniable when he remains fit.
But, Arsenal are closing in on a move for Mikel Merino from Real Sociedad, whose arrival will push Partey down the pecking order.
