There are rumors of Thomas Partey being linked with FC Barcelona. The Arsenal star has been a nuisance in the Arsenal contract for a long time now.
The Ghana International has played every single match and also started for Arsenal this season. The star has already made an increase to his playing time for the Gunners.
According to various Spanish News Sources, Barcelona are looking to sign Thomas Partey. He will leave Arsenal for Free in January 2025. He will be joining Barcelona in a Pre-January Contract. Barcelona already knows how good the midfielder is and they have always been keen to sign the Arsenal Star.
Thomas Partey has been very good for Arsenal every time he has played. However, his playing minutes has reduced a bit because of his injuries. Whenever he is on the pitch, he performs very well and never does any mistakes at all.
It is time for Arsenal to sell the midfielder as well. His injuries are concerning to them. His playing time gets lesser and lesser every time it happens. Thomas Partey’s injury record is not that good either.
Why he should be sold?
Arsenal are looking forward to par ways with Thomas Partey. If they par ways with Thomas Partey then they can make their midfield a lot stronger. Mikel Merino who they signed in the summer transfer window has been impressive. Merino has been performing very well for Arsenal. He can partner up with Martin Ødegaard and Declan Rice in the midfield and play amazing.
The increased playing time he is getting will not last the rest of the season with the Gunners. Thomas Partey has been an extra for the Gunners with so many other options in the midfield. If they sell him, it will be boost for the Gunners in the funds too.
According to Barcelona, Thomas Partey would be an amazing addition to the team. Barcelona are in a bad financial condition at the moment so they can bargain for the Arsenal Star.
Even after the International break Thomas Partey still has not recovered from his injuries. Arsenal may have to start Mikel Merino instead. He has been out of the injury duty of Ghana.
The gunners are already missing a lot of key players due to injuries. Martin Ødegaard and Kai Havertz are also at the sidelines due to severe injuries. Ben White and Jurrien Timber are also injured since the Southampton Clash. Long term major injuries include Tierney and Zinchenko. On Saturday Partey played right back because of so many injuries. “Thomas is unable to join the Black Stars due to medical issues he is currently experiencing, and his club has scheduled him for further tests in the coming days.” The Ghana Football Association said.
Partey had played every single match this season for Arsenal. Thomas only has missed 11 minutes for Arsenal. He has scored once against Aston Villa. He has been a very good partner with Declan Rice along side him . The Ghana International is among the players who will get extra training from the boss. Partey will also be tested for injuries too.
If Partey, White, Martin and Tierney are not available for the match against the Cherries then there will be concerns for Arteta in the midfield as well as in the right back positions.
Times are very going to be very bad for the Gunners. Thomas Partey is having £200,000 wage per week. He is like a burden to Arsenal at the moment. It will be better for Mikel Arteta if the Gunners sell Thomas Partey and place Mikel Merino in his place in the midfield.
