Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has seemingly been handed a huge injury boost with midfielder Thomas Partey edging towards a return.
The Ghanaian midfielder has been ruled out since the shocking 3-0 reverse at the hands of Crystal Palace at the start of April. He lasted 75 minutes at Selhurst Park before being withdrawn with a thigh injury.
Whilst the actual severity of the problem remained to be seen, Gunners boss Arteta hinted that like Kieran Tierney, Partey could be restricted to the sidelines for the remainder of the campaign. Speaking after the Palace thumping, he said: “It’s a little bit ambiguous but he has a significant injury and we’ll have to keep assessing him.
