In a recent column on Caught Offside, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano sheds light on Mikel Arteta’s perspective regarding Thomas Partey, asserting that the Arsenal manager still considers the Ghanaian midfielder a key asset despite rumors of a potential departure.
While there have been reports from Italy suggesting Partey’s contemplation of leaving, Romano questions the authenticity of Juventus’ interest in the player.
The Serie A giants, seeking midfield reinforcements, reportedly prioritize a more attack-minded player, distinct from Partey’s defensive prowess.
Romano mentions Juventus’ prior interest in Partey during the last summer transfer window, indicating that Arsenal’s decision to retain him halted any potential move.
Looking ahead, Romano does not anticipate significant developments for Partey in the upcoming January transfer window, emphasizing Juventus’ preference for more offensive options in midfield.
