Arsenal are facing a significant setback ahead of their crucial Premier League encounter with Liverpool this Sunday, as manager Mikel Arteta confirmed a major injury blow to midfielder Thomas Partey
Despite returning to full training last week, Partey will not be available for the upcoming match against Liverpool.
Partey, who has been sidelined for nearly four months due to a serious thigh problem requiring surgery, suffered a setback in the same area during training. The Ghanaian midfielder has not featured for Arsenal since October 8 and has only made five appearances for the team this season.
