Chris Hughton has confirmed that Thomas Partey is carrying an injury after the midfielder did not play in Ghana's draw with Angola.
The Black Stars travelled to the Palancas Negras in their latest Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match on Monday. But Partey was left as an unused substitute, despite playing all 90 minutes of Ghana's win against the same opponents last Thursday.
Despite being without their star midfielder, Ghana were able to fight back from going a goal down to Lucas Joao's penalty to claim a late draw. And Hughton confirmed Arsenal's worst fears after the game by revealing Partey had suffered a knock.
