Ghana midfielder Thomas Partey is expected to feature for Arsenal in their English Premier League clash against AFC Bournemouth this Saturday, October 19, after recovering from an injury concern.

The experienced midfield enforcer was named in Ghana coach Otto Addo’s squad for the October international break but withdrew as a precautionary measure.

The midfielder missed the Black Stars' goalless draw and 2-0 defeat against Sudan in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers, leaving Ghana in a precarious position as they fight to secure qualification for the tournament in Morocco next year.

Thomas Partey’s absence was a significant blow to the team, but his decision to pull out was ultimately a cautionary step to avoid aggravating the injury.

Despite the concern, Arsenal fans can breathe a sigh of relief as Partey is now expected to be fit and available for the Gunners’ upcoming Premier League match against Bournemouth.

His return will provide a much-needed boost for Mikel Arteta’s side as they look to maintain momentum in the league.

Thomas Partey’s availability will be closely watched by both Arsenal and Black Stars fans, as the midfielder’s fitness is crucial for club and country in the weeks ahead.
