Arsenal Set to Let Thomas Partey Leave as Contract Nears End

Arsenal are reportedly ready to part ways with Ghanaian midfielder Thomas Partey, whose contract runs out at the end of the 2024/25 season.

The 31-year-old is expected to leave the club this summer as a free agent, with teams from both the Premier League and Saudi Arabia already showing interest.

No New Contract for Partey

Football journalist Sacha Tavolieri has reported that Arsenal have decided not to offer Partey a new contract. This makes his departure from the club look certain.

Partey joined Arsenal from Atlético Madrid in 2020 and has played an important role in midfield when fit. However, injuries and changes in manager Mikel Arteta’s tactics have reduced his playing time this season.

Now approaching the end of his contract — and possibly the final years of his professional career — the Gunners appear ready to move on without him.

End of an Era at Arsenal

The decision brings an end to Partey’s time in North London and gives him the opportunity to start a new chapter elsewhere.

Saudi Clubs Interested

Although his Arsenal career is ending, Partey is unlikely to be short of offers. Clubs in England and Saudi Arabia are reportedly keen to sign him on a free transfer.

While Partey is said to enjoy life in London and is open to staying in England, early talks have already begun with representatives from Saudi Arabia’s Pro League.

Saudi officials are reportedly impressed by Partey’s experience in the Champions League and see him as a valuable signing to help boost the profile of their league. Sources also suggest that Partey is open to making the move to the Gulf region.
