Thomas Partey of Ghana has been excluded from Arsenal’s next preseason tour of the United States, which kicks off on Wednesday.
The 29-year-old is anticipated to continue working out in London alongside colleagues Folarin Balogun and Bernd Leno.
Partey played for 45 minutes in the 5-1 victory against Ipswich Town on his comeback from a thigh injury sustained in April, but he did not go to Germany for Friday’s 5-3 victory over Nurnberg.
Sunday’s matchup between Arsenal and Everton will take place in Baltimore, Maryland. Four days later, on Saturday, Arsenal will play Chelsea in Orlando, Florida.
Partey joined Arsenal from Atletico Madrid in 2020 for 50m euros and has since established himself as one of the team’s most important players.
His serious injury near the end of the season hurt the Gunners as they failed to secure Champions League football.
He has played 48 Premier League games in two seasons, scoring two goals.
