Arsenal can secure £34m Saudi transfer windfall to help fund Declan Rice move

The future of Arsenal holding midfielder Thomas Partey remains uncertain as the summer transfer window begins to heat up.

Partey joined the Gunners from Atletico Madrid three years ago for £42.5million but injuries and a lack of consistency derailed his first two campaigns in north London. The Ghana international then seemed to be finally finding his feet last season, playing at an elite level for the first two-thirds of the season as Mikel Arteta's side found themselves top of the Premier League by five points in April.

But the 30-year-old's form suddenly dropped massively before he was eventually replaced by Jorginho in Arteta's starting XI. Since then, there has been considerable speculation around his future at the Emirates Stadium, with several Saudi Arabian clubs said to be interested in signing him this summer.
