Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Thomas Partey is growing frustrated with his limited Arsenal role this season and could consider an exit in January.
Declan Rice’s arrival has shaken up Arsenal’s midfield picture whilst Kai Havertz’s signing also added more competition. Partey’s game time has been limited as a result and he’s grown ‘increasingly dissatisfied’ with his standing and may look to move on, according to Tutto Juve.
Thomas Partey is growing frustrated with his Arsenal role and could consider an exit come January, according to reports in Italy.
Partey’s involvement has been limited this season due to injury, while Mikel Arteta has also deployed him in defence.
Juventus have previously been linked with Partey and could consider a loan move for the midfielder in January.
Arteta has insisted he wants to keep Partey and that the Ghana international can play alongside Declan Rice in midfield.
Juventus themselves, who have had to deal with injury problems to the likes of Paul Pogba, would consider making a move, although only on loan, such are the finances involved. Arsenal spent £45million to land Partey from Atletico Madrid several years ago.
His decline in minutes comes despite Mikel Arteta’s insistence that he wanted to keep the player and maintained Rice’s arrival would impact on him. He said: “Without a question of a doubt, Thomas Partey is a super important player for us and for me. I want him to be in the team. Every time I spoke to him and every time I have a conversation with him, his will is to stay with us. For me, there’s nothing there at all.”
The Spaniard also added: “They can play together and that was in my plans. You want to improve the squad and have more quality. We need players who can play together but we need players in the same position who can fight for their places.
