Thomas Partey faces an uncertain future at Arsenal as his contract talks have hit a roadblock. The 31-year-old midfielder from Ghana will become a free agent when his current deal expires at the end of June. Arsenal signed Partey from Atletico Madrid back in 2020 on a five-year contract worth millions. The club has been trying to work out a new agreement with his representatives since the Premier League season ended. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reports that both sides remain far apart on terms.
Several European teams and clubs from Saudi Arabia want to sign the experienced player. Arsenal confirmed they are still negotiating but no breakthrough has happened. Partey could walk away from the London club before the new season starts in August. A prominent Ghanaian lawyer and Arsenal supporter named Gabby Otchere-Darko thinks Partey should leave. He told Asaase Radio that the midfielder should find a new team and earn good money for his retirement years.
Partey recently earned recognition as Ghana's top footballer at the 2025 Ghana Football Awards ceremony. This marks his third time winning the prestigious honor during his career. The midfielder has been a key player for both his country and Arsenal over the past several seasons.
