Arteta complains on Partey’s new injury

Arsenal Football Club manager Mikel Arteta isn’t sure how long Ghana midfielder Thomas Partey’s injury will keep the latter out of action.

He said this in a press game presser ahead of The Gunners Carabao Cup fourth round tie against West Ham United at the London Stadium.

West Ham is on a three game losing streaking after suffering 1-4 to Aston Villa, 1-2 to Olympiacos and 0-1 to Everton heading into the tie against Arsenal.

Partey will miss the game after picking up a muscle injury just before Arsenal’s game against Sevilla on Match day 3 of the UEFA Champions League.

“I think he will be out for weeks. I don’t know how long but he’s got another appointment (medical) today and we will see more after that. I am so sorry for him because I think he is doing everything that he can do right to be there. He needs to lift himself up again with our support because he is a player that is critical for us.”

Partey has missed games against Sevilla and Sheffield United since picking up the injury.
