Tell him to pack his belongings and leave my club immediately, because I DO NOT TOLERATE LAZY players…I can’t be paying high salary on Him and not benefiting from Him’: Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke has ordered Arteta and Edu that they must sell £60 million Star as soon as possible or risk losing their jobs
Thomas Partey’s future at Arsenal has come under scrutiny amid reports of his desire to leave the club. According to Tuttu Mercato Web, the Ghanaian midfielder has expressed his wish to depart Arsenal, despite contrasting reports from the club itself. It’s important to note that this report originates from Italian sources, with no confirmation from English media.
Italian media outlets have previously used player links to Serie A clubs as a means to apply pressure. In this case, it seems there’s an attempt to attract players, including Partey, to Juventus, who are in search of midfield options. Juventus has faced challenges this season, losing two key midfielders to bans, with Nicolo Fagioli and Paul Pogba expected to be unavailable for the remainder of the campaign. While Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is a target for Juventus, they seem reluctant to commit to permanent signings.
Juventus is reportedly interested in securing Thomas Partey on an initial loan deal, a proposition that Arsenal appears to oppose. Partey remains a crucial player for Arsenal and Mikel Arteta, despite his injury setbacks. Recent reports indicated that Arsenal is intent on retaining Partey during the January transfer window, contradicting the claims of his dissatisfaction due to limited playing time, which is primarily a result of his injury issues.
The latest report from Italy not only suggests Partey’s desire to leave in January but also hints at a preference for another Premier League club or a return to La Liga. These claims may raise doubts, as Partey remains a vital part of Arteta’s plans for the current season.
Arsenal might consider selling him next summer if they can secure a suitable replacement in the transfer market. However, for the time being, it appears that the Ghanaian midfielder will remain at Arsenal.
