Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has spoken about the fitness of Thomas Partey.
The midfielder, who was at the World Cup, played a part in a friendly for the Gunners against AC Milan.
Asked about Partey’s game time, and the fact that he suffered a slight knock in the game against Milan, Arteta stated: “He played a lot and he was disappointed by the way he had to leave the World Cup but it happens to every nation that they are out.
“It takes a few days to reset and to focus on the team.
“The good thing we have is that everybody has been showing that they are desperate to get back as quick as possible. It was really good to have those two back today playing some minutes.”
