VIDEO: Arsenal sends down top physio to Ghana with Thomas Partey

Thomas Teye Partey has arrived in the Black Stars camp along with Arsenal physiotherapist Simon Murphy ahead of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers double-header against Angola.

This is seen as a precautionary measure to prevent the midfielder from injury as he has battled with several injuries since joining the club.

Arsenal are at a crucial moment in their season. Mikel Arteta’s side sits top of the Premier League and are in strong position to lift the title.

Thomas Partey has been key for Arsenal this season, with his top performances vital for the club’s title ambitions.

The 29-year-old arrived in Ghana camp on Tuesday morning, just in time for the crucial AFCON qualifiers against the Palancras Negras of Angola.

The Black Stars are set to play against Angola in the first leg at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Thursday, March 23, with the reverse fixture scheduled for Luanda on March 27.

Ghana is currently joint top of the Group E with four points from two games, following a 3-0 win over Madagascar and a 1-1 draw with Central African Republic in June last year.
