Arsenal’s Thomas Partey out of West Ham clash due to injury

Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey will miss the team’s crucial Premier League match against West Ham United on Saturday evening due to a muscle issue.

The Ghana international has been a key player for Arsenal this season, appearing in 18 consecutive Premier League games before being sidelined.

Partey’s consistency has been a welcome relief for Arsenal fans, who saw him struggle with injuries for a large part of last season. His excellent form had earned him praise from manager Mikel Arteta, who highlighted his stunning performance against Sporting CP in the Champions League earlier this week.

However, Partey’s injury setback means he will miss the opportunity to face West Ham United on Saturday.

His compatriot Mohammed Kudus will also miss the game, as he continues to serve his suspension.

The good news for Arsenal fans is that Partey’s injury is not expected to keep him out for long.

He could potentially return to the team for their next game against Manchester United, which promises to be a crucial clash.
