The Ghanaian will be 32 years of age by the start of next season, and whilst he hasn’t lost his competitive edge, he couldn’t really be considered a first-choice moving forward.
22-year-old set to be Arsenal’s Partey replacement
To that end, Mikel Arteta could look to move him on, with another Arsenal star set for a surprise move in January.
Raheem Sterling is also “desperate to play,” but a lack of match time for the Gunners has seen him make a transfer decision regarding his loan from Chelsea.
Rather than ‘business as usual’ in January, we could therefore see a bit of a transfer merry-go-round as Arsenal look to haul the teams above them back in.

As we get to the business end of the 2024/25 campaign, the strength in depth that squads have will ultimately dictate how well they’ll finish up.

Agoume has the tenacity and work rate that have been the hallmark’s of Partey’s career, however, where he holds a significant advantage is in his athleticism and fitness.
