Arsenal have enjoyed a fine start to the new Premier League campaign, but Thomas Partey's latest injury setback represents a major blow for Mikel Arteta's side.
The Ghana midfielder has looked the part whenever he has been fit since joining the Gunners in a £45million deal from Atletico Madrid back in 2020, and Arsenal are unbeaten in the matches that Partey has featured in so far this term.
But the 29-year-old has been plagued by injuries during his time at the Emirates. The midfield enforcer has already missed three Premier League games with a thigh issue - and now the former Arsenal man looks set for another spell on the sidelines after he was withdrawn from the Ghana squad that lost 3-0 to Brazil on Friday night.
