Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 46720, member: 636"] Gabby Otchere-Darko has spoken out against Arsenal Football Club over their handling of Ghana midfielder Thomas Partey. The prominent politician and Arsenal fan expressed anger about how the team treated the player. Reports show Partey will depart Arsenal when June ends after spending four years with the London club. He joined Arsenal from Atletico Madrid back during 2020. Contract talks between Partey's representatives and Arsenal management have failed to produce an agreement. Both sides could not reach terms for extending his current deal. Arsenal officials have moved forward with plans to sign Brentford captain Christian Norgaard as Partey's replacement. The club appears ready to complete that transfer soon. Otchere-Darko rejected claims that money motivated Partey's departure from Arsenal. He posted messages on social media platform X stating the midfielder faced disrespect from club leadership. The politician argued Arsenal knew when Partey's contract would expire but focused more energy on finding his replacement rather than keeping him. The midfielder wanted to remain with his family living near London according to Otchere-Darko. Partey has young children and preferred staying close to them. Arsenal failed to show proper appreciation for his contributions despite strong statistical performance. The club did not give him adequate recognition for his work on the field. Otchere-Darko concluded his comments stating Arsenal should have treated Partey better. He said the team will miss the midfielder's abilities after he leaves. The politician maintained his support for Arsenal but criticized their decision-making regarding Partey's future. [/QUOTE]
