Thomas Partey’s future at Arsenal is inching closer to resolution as the midfielder looks set to extend his stay at the Emirates. The 31-year-old Ghanaian international, in the final year of his contract, has impressed this season with 20 appearances despite his history of injuries.
Manager Mikel Arteta has been pivotal in pushing for Partey’s renewal, emphasizing his importance to the team. Arteta reportedly held direct talks with Partey, persuading him to focus on the club by stepping back from Ghana’s national team duties during last month’s fixtures to avoid injury risks.
This gesture appears to have solidified mutual trust between the player and the club. According to reports, Partey is expected to sign a two-year extension with a modest salary increase, potentially keeping him in North London until 2027.
While Arteta is determined to see the deal through, Arsenal’s board remains cautious about offering improved terms to a player entering his 30s. However, the manager’s faith in Partey and his performances this season may tip the scales.
