The summer signing from Atletico Madrid has missed out recently due to a thigh problem although he could return for the Gunners on Saturday
Thomas Partey could be fit for Arsenal’s FA Cup third round clash with Newcastle United on Saturday after he returned to full training.
The midfielder has missed the previous month after suffering a thigh injury, although the Gunners say the summer signing from Atletico Madrid is back with the first-team squad and will be ready to return to action very shortly.
Arsenal confirmed on Thursday that Partey is back in training but that he will be assessed regularly in the build-up to the FA Cup clash, in which the north Londoners will begin their defence of the FA Cup having beaten Chelsea in the final last season.
