Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed Thomas Partey has recovered from his injury and is 'ready' for the club's next game.
Partey withdrew from the Black Stars squad for the October international break as they faced Sudan in back-to-back games in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers.
The 31-year-old's absence was due to 'medical issues' with the Black Stars failing to win any of the two games against the Falcons of Jediane (1 draw and 1 defeat).
Following the end of the international break, Arteta has revealed the midfielder is back in full fitness and is expected to feature in their next game.
"Thomas Partey is fit and ready. For Gabriel Martinelli, same as Havertz; we will decide today," the gaffer said.
"Ben White, Timber and Zinchenko are quite close, we hope to have some positive news."
Arsenal face Bournemouth this weekend as they eye top position on the Premier League table.
