Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is hopeful over the availability of midfielder Thomas Partey ahead of tomorrow's Premier League game.
The Gunners recently returned to winning ways with a 4-2 victory at Aston Villa. They will be aiming for another three points at Leicester City.
Ahead of the encounter, Arteta has provided a positive injury update on Partey. He said that he could be involved against the Foxes on the road.
He said: "The question mark is on Thomas. He hasn’t trained much but it looks like he could be available, so let’s see how he trains today. He’s a really important player for us, who we missed in the last few games. Hopefully he can be available."
In Partey's absence, Jorginho has been playing in the number six role. The Italian has been hugely impressive in the last two matches.
If Partey is deemed fit tomorrow, Jorginho could still keep his place in the line-up and we could see Granit Xhaka dropping to the bench.
