Ghana midfielder Thomas Partey has fully recovered from injury and is available for selection at Arsenal.

The 28-year-old will be in Mikel Arteta's team for the first time this season after missing the first three matches of the campaign due to injury.

Arsenal have been without a win in all three games in the absence of Partey, but Arteta confirmed the Ghanaian is available for the visit of Norwich.

"Right ankle. Thomas is now back in full training and available for selection," he said.

The midfield dynamo suffered an injury playing for Arsenal in pre-season against Chelsea.

His return is huge boost for manager Mikel Arteta following the Gunners disastrous start to the season.

Partey also missed Ghana's World Cup qualifier against Ethiopia last Friday.

However, he is expected to feature in the London side's game against Norwich City on Saturday, when the English Premier League returns from the international break.

The 28-year-old joined Arsenal last season from Spanish club Atletico Madrid on transfer deadline day.
