Italian club make contact about move for Arsenal star

The summer transfer window is in full flow with clubs across Europe working hard to complete signings ahead of next season. 

All 20 Premier League clubs will likely be looking to add to their squads in the coming weeks, but a number of current top flight stars could also be on their way out of England.

Several Premier League players have already been linked with moves to the Saudi Arabian Pro League, with N’Golo Kante and Ruben Neves having already agreed moves to the Middle East.

Another player who has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia is Arsenal’s Thomas Partey, but it now appears that the midfielder is also attracting interest from Europe.

As per Fabrizio Romano, Italian giants Juventus have asked about the availability of the Ghana international.

Juventus’ interest in Partey comes amid speculation that he could become the latest player to move to Saudi, with Romano claiming that unnamed Pro League sides would be willing to pay around £35 million for the player over the course of three instalments.

Partey played a key role for Arsenal last season

Partey, 30, joined the Gunners from Spanish side Atletico Madrid back in 2020 and has since made 99 appearances for the club.

The Ghanaian has played a crucial role for Mikel Arteta’s side ever since arriving at The Emirates, but it appears increasingly likely that he could depart north London this summer.

Despite interest from a number of clubs, Romano claims that nothing has yet been agreed in regard to personal terms with the player.

Last term, Partey made 40 appearances for Arsenal across all competitions as they London side came close to winning the Premier League title.

The midfielder made 33 Premier League appearances as Arteta’s side topped the table for the majority of the campaign, before eventual winners Manchester City leapfrogged them in the latter part of the season.

Partey’s contract with Arsenal is currently set to run until the summer of 2025.
