Ghana midfielder, Thomas Partey is hoping to return to the field for club side, Arsenal by next month.
The 30-year-old injured his groin last month forcing him to miss Arsenal’s dramatic 3-1 Premier League win at home to Manchester United.
The former Atletico Madrid star was left out Ghana’s squad that defeated Central Africa Republic 3-1 in the final AFCON qualifier at the Baba Yara Stadium last weekend.
He equally missed the 3-1 win over Liberia in an international friendly in Accra on Tuesday, September 12 where Ernest Nuamah, Mohammed Kudus and Jordan Ayew grabbed a goal each.
Partey is eying a quick return to the field by October but his progress will be closely monitored by the Gunners’ medical team.
He is expected to play a key role in Ghana coach, Chris Hughton’s first AFCON experience in Ivory Coast next year.
