Arsenal handed big injury boost for Everton game


Thomas Partey news

Partey fit for Arsenal

Arsenal have been handed a big injury boost with midfielder Thomas Partey returning to first-team training.

The Ghanaian sustained a thigh injury shortly after the last international break, and his absence has been felt.

The Gunners have lost four games without him since April, and things could have been different if he was fit.

A top four spot is now unlikely unless Spurs lose to Norwich City, but the Gunners will want to end on a high note.

They are scheduled to host Everton in the final game of the Premier League season tomorrow. Partey may feature.

The midfielder has participated in the last two full training sessions, and could make his return off the bench.

Arsenal can end the season with 69 points on the board which is an improvement on last season's tally of 61.

They finished eighth in the standings last term, but are now assured to finish at least fifth regardless of a defeat.
