Thomas Partey was pictured back in training with the first team on Tuesday afternoon.

Speaking last week, Arteta seemed pleased with the Ghanaian international’s progress so it’s likely that we will see him back on the pitch in the not too distant future.


The Porto match might come a bit too soon for Partey, considering the length of time he has been sidelined for.

The midfielder has not been seen in action since October after undergoing an operation on his thigh.

Expected Return Date – Saturday 24th February v Newcastle
