Arsenal confirm that Thomas Partey has sustained muscle damage to his right thigh and will be assessed "in the coming weeks".

Arsenal have confirmed that Thomas Partey has sustained muscle damage to his right thigh following Monday's defeat to Crystal Palace.

The Ghana international pulled up just before Wilfried Zaha's penalty in the 3-0 loss at Selhurst Park, and Mikel Arteta was not optimistic about his condition after the game.

Arsenal's latest medical update has now revealed that Partey will be assessed "in the coming weeks", which suggests that the midfielder is fighting to be fit before the end of the season.

"Our No. 5 was substituted during Monday night's game against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park after aggravating his right thigh. Thomas has since received further assessments, and a subsequent scan has shown muscle damage to his right thigh," the update read.

"We will continue to assess Thomas in the coming weeks, during which time he will also receive further specialist consultations. Everyone will be working hard to get Thomas back on the pitch as soon as possible."

Partey has scored two goals and set up one more in 24 matches for Arsenal this season and has previously missed 21 games for the club through injury since arriving in 2020.

News of Partey's injury comes after it was revealed that Kieran Tierney would be out for the rest of the season with a knee injury, while Takehiro Tomiyasu (calf) will not be available for selection until after next weekend's clash with Southampton at the earliest. body check tags ::
