The 45 million pound Gunners’ summer signing has been on the sidelines since he was injured in early February.
As reported by Mikel Arteta, Thomas Partey could play in Arsenal’s game against Benfica as the player is “very close” to being back in top form.
Partey has missed the last three games due to an injury acquired in a 1-0 loss to Aston Villa on February 6.
The absence of the defensive midfielder has not gone unnoticed, as the ‘Gunners’ have only been able to win one of three games, losing in one and drawing in the other.
The 27-year-old will participate in a training session on Wednesday. If unscathed, the Ghanaian will join the team on the trip to Athens for the knockout round of the Europa League.
