Arsenal Manager Mikel Arteta Provides Update On Thomas Party Injury

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is not confident that Thomas Partey will be back for Wednesday’s match against Aston Villa.

Partey missed Saturday’s win over Fulham due to injury, with Partey struggling with a thigh issue.

Arsenal are continuing to assess him and Arteta believes Partey’s thigh injury is similar to the one that forced him to miss the last six weeks of last season, although hopefully not as severe.

Asked on Saturday if Partey had a chance of playing against Aston Villa, Arteta said: “I don’t think so. We still have to make another scan, on him but I don’t think he will be available.

Asked if Partey’s injury was similar to last season, Arteta added: “[It’s a] similar area, hopefully not as bad.”
