Press conference

Arteta on why Partey came off at the break

What’s the latest on Thomas Partey’s thigh injury?

The Ghana international was replaced at half time against Aston Villa, and Mikel Arteta was asked for an update on him after the match.

 

“We don't know [the extent] of it,” our manager said. “We have to scan him tomorrow or the day after and see what he felt straight away. Let's wait and see what the magnitude of the injury is.

 

“I don't know [if he will go away with Ghana now]. As I said, the doctor will have to have a look at him and probably scan him. Then we will decide what to do with him.”
