“My head is always here” – Thomas Partey addresses future speculations, affirms commitment to Arsenal

Ghanaian midfielder Thomas Partey responds to rumors surrounding his future at Arsenal amid speculation of a potential departure from the Premier League club.

The 30-year-old has faced uncertainties about his role at Arsenal, particularly after struggling to secure a regular spot in the starting lineup, compounded by the arrival of Declan Rice from West Ham United.

Despite being linked to other clubs, including Juventus and potential moves to the Saudi League last summer, Partey remained at Arsenal, emphasizing his dedication to the team.

Following his return to action and a solid performance in Arsenal’s 2-0 victory over Luton Town, Partey reassures fans of his commitment to the club.

“My head is always here,” he asserts to football.london. “This is where I choose to play, I’m really happy every time I’m on the field.”

Acknowledging the ongoing speculations, Partey emphasizes his contentment with Arsenal and his desire to continue contributing to the team’s success.

“I know a lot of speculations have been going on, but for me, I’m really happy to be here and to continue playing for this club.”

When queried about his contract situation, Partey maintains focus on performing at his best until the end of the season, emphasizing the importance of remaining available for selection.

“Well, I still have to the end of the season, I think. I have to do my best and try to perform at the highest level and I think the most important is to be available every time.”

With his recent return from a four-month injury layoff, Partey aims to solidify his place in the squad as Arsenal prepares to face Brighton at the AMEX Stadium in the upcoming Premier League fixture.
