Thomas Partey’s early injury return excites Arsenal fans

On April 27, 2022, 4:03 AM

Arsenal star Thomas Partey is set for a quick return from injury after he posted videos of himself working hard at the gym.

Partey was forced off the field with 16 minutes left to play against Crystal Palace two weeks ago at Selhurst Park and was expected to be out for at least 6 weeks.

Mikel Arteta claimed the midfielder picked up a “significant injury”, which is understood to affect his thigh and could keep him sidelined for a number of weeks.

However, the Ghana international is determined to return to action as soon as possible and has hit the gym to step up his rehabilitation.

The 28-year-old shared a video on his personal Instagram account showing him breaking a sweat on the spin bike.

Arsenal fans expectedly went crazy at the news of a possible early return for their Ghanaian midfielder.

Below is how fans reacted on Twitter to Partey’s post on Instagram.

I have a feeling, based on zero factual evidence, that Thomas Partey will be back for the West Ham game.

Another set up of supporters have kept their fingers crossed hoping Partey will be available for the North London derby against Spurs on May 12.

Would be lovely if Thomas Partey was fit for spurs, basically 3 weeks away…

Roumour has it that Thomas Partey will be fit for the Spuds game….That’ll be a bonus !

— Stansted Steve (@StanstedSteve65) April 22, 2022

Thomas Partey may be way ahead of schedule on his road to recovery, but we still shouldn’t rush him back prematurely. We have enough quality to beat West Ham’s B team and Leeds without him. Get him fighting fit for Spurs and don’t unnecessarily risk him any sooner.

At Arsenal, Thomas Partey seems to have unlocked a trait of quickly recovering from injuries. pic.twitter.com/b5oGAH6eYa
