Premier League side Arsenal could reportedly retain Ghanaian midfielder Thomas Partey for the 2025/26 season.
According to reliable transfer journalist David Ornstein, Partey’s departure from the North London club has not yet been finalized.
However, he indicated that there is “a very good chance” the Ghanaian could leave, depending on Arsenal’s incoming transfers.
“It’s not settled yet, as far as I’m aware, but there is a very good chance. It may be influenced by the status of potential arrivals in that position,” Ornstein told The Athletic.
Arsenal have shown strong interest in Real Sociedad midfielder Martín Zubimendi, with talks reportedly at an advanced stage.
The Spanish midfielder is seen as a potential replacement for Partey, who has been listed among Arsenal’s possible departures.
Partey joined Arsenal from Atlético Madrid in 2020 after the Gunners activated his £45 million release clause.
He signed a five-year contract, which is set to expire at the end of the current campaign.
