“Despite this indication from Partey’s team that Juventus would be a favoured destination if he were to leave Arsenal, Al Ahli are still working to convince the midfielder to make the switch to Saudi Arabia.“
Thomas Partey could be the new tank engine for Saudi clubs
It is no shock to see Saudi Arabia look to Arsenal for some new signings. They are seemingly looking at a lot of players. That is from the traditional big six.
The reported £45million signing was a key player for the club. But couldn’t remain consistent throughout the whole of last season.
Rice would play in the position that Partey currently holds. So Arteta clearly feels like they need a stronger defensive midfielder to challenge for the title.
It will be really interesting to see what Arsenal’s squad is looking like by the end of the summer transfer window. It looks like there could be a lot of incomings and outgoings at the club.
