Unfortunately, Partey's progress was hindered by a thigh injury he sustained in October 2023. Prior to that, he had only made four appearances in the Premier League for Arsenal. However, he recently made a comeback earlier this month.
These injuries also prevented Partey from participating in Ghana's 2023 AFCON campaign in Cote D'Ivoire, where the team was eliminated in the preliminary stage without securing a victory.
"It has been a challenging period for me, being sidelined for an extended period of time. However, I am now fully prepared to give my all to the team. I am willing to contribute in any way possible to elevate our performance. I dedicated myself to intense rehabilitation in order to regain the required level of fitness. Now, I am eager to reunite with the team."
Since his return from injury, Partey has had limited playing time for Arsenal in the Premier League. He recently played for 64 minutes in a closed-door friendly match against Queens Park Rangers, which Arsenal unfortunately lost 4-0.
This defeat comes ahead of an important league game against Manchester City on Sunday, March 31 at 15:30 GMT.
