Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta has said Thomas Partey remains an injury doubt for their Premier League clash at Aston Villa on Saturday.
The Ghana midfielder missed the 3-1 defeat to Manchester City on Wednesday.
Arsenal is back in action quickly for Saturday’s early kick-off at Villa Park and Arteta is not sure whether Partey will be available for the game.
When asked about Partey on Friday, he told reporters: “We have to assess him today again.
“He had some discomfort, he had a little muscle discomfort. We have to assess him and see how he is.
“Emile [Smith Rowe] will be training today, if he’s fine he’ll be in the squad and Gabi [Gabriel Jesus] is still not there.”
