Friday, June 20, 2025 - Ghanaian midfielder, Thomas Partey is reportedly set to leave Arsenal this summer as negotiations over a new deal have come to a 'complete standstill'.
ESPN reports that Partey, whose contract expires at the
end of June, is not expected to reach an agreement.
Partey joined Arsenal for £45million from Atletico
Madrid on deadline day in October 2020.
The Ghana international has made 167 appearances for the
Gunners with nine goals to his name.
Partey was ruled out injured for large chunks of the 2023-24
season but returned as an important figure for Mikel Arteta last
campaign as they reached the Champions League semi-finals.
His stint in north London has only won him a Community
Shield.
Arsenal look set to secure a £51million deal for Real
Sociedad's Martin Zubimendi, who is being touted as a replacement for
Partey.
Partey says his family will be a decisive factor in deciding
his future.
‘I think the first thing is where are you happy and where do
you feel at home. At the end of the day you’ve been in football, you’ve been in
different teams.
‘Then it’s about what is your next objective what do you
want to achieve next. You still have to look at all this and at the end of the
day we all have a family that needs money, this is our mind.
‘We are not getting younger. There are a lot of things where
you have to look now with a family, where you want them to be happy. When you
are young you just play anywhere.
‘I’m an Arsenal fan, I can’t decide anything and just have
to leave it to my agent and the club. Me, I just want to enjoy football.’
