In an effort to speed up his rest and recovery, the 30-year-old has been sporting a leg brace, although it's unclear when precisely he'll be able to play again with this recent setback. Due to the Gunners star's probable absence from the Africa Cup of Nations in January, Arsenal may need to add a replacement for him during the winter transfer window. In five games in all competitions in 2023–24, Partey has mostly played right back.
Since finishing last month's match against Manchester City as a substitute for the final fifteen minutes, he has not appeared in any games. Before Arsenal's Champions League trip to Sevilla last month, Partey took a knock during practise. Because of his ongoing injury problems, Arsenal may now have to make an acquisition. In the holding midfield position thus far, manager Mikel Arteta has had to rely on Jorginho and Declan Rice, he may use further depth before the second half of the season begins.
