Arsenal have seemingly been handed a major boost ahead of this weekend's clash with Brentford as Thomas Partey looks set to return from injury.
The Ghanaian midfielder has been a key influence in the middle of the park for Mikel Arteta since his arrival, however his fitness concerns have caused issues along the way. Since joining in 2020, the 29-year-old has missed a total of 36 competitive fixtures for the Gunners, underlying just how concerning his absence is.
Partey already missed four Premier League games so far this campaign and in his absence, the manager has looked to use Sambi Lokonga in the no.6 role, one he has taken to with mixed results so far as he still learns his trade.
