Thomas Partey had been ruled out for a few matches due to a muscle injury. The player however had made a return for Arsenal’s win over Leicester City. He had replaced Martin Odegaard five minutes before the end of the second half. Arsenal manager Arteta had updated on the player. He said,
“The question mark on Thomas. He hasn’t trained much but looks like he could be available. Let’s see how he goes today. We’ve missed him in the past few games and hopefully he’ll be back.”
Gabriel Jesus on the other hand is yet to return to the Arsenal team. The Brazilian suffered a ligament damage at the Qatar World Cup. Jesus had come back to London and had undergone a surgery. The player is expected to be back before Arsenal disperses for the international break in March. Mohamed Elneny had been absent since the Tottenham match.
