Thomas Partey Returns To Training For Arsenal

Ghana midfielder Thomas Partey is back in Arsenal training, raising hopes of his imminent return to the pitch ahead of the Gunners’ Champions League Group B clash against RC Lens on Tuesday night.

Partey has been sidelined since suffering a groin injury just before last month’s international break. His absence from the squad has been noticeable as Arsenal navigated through several key fixtures without him, including a notable 3-1 win over Manchester United.

The midfielder’s injury forced him to miss subsequent matches against Everton, PSV Eindhoven, Tottenham Hotspur, Brentford, and Bournemouth. However, his return to training suggests that he is edging closer to full fitness.

While it remains uncertain whether Partey will be named in the squad for the Arsenal team travelling to France, his potential availability for selection is a significant boost for Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta. This is especially crucial with a high-stakes Premier League showdown against Manchester City looming on the horizon next Sunday.
