Arsenal: Thomas Partey a doubt for Real Madrid trip amid Mikel Arteta fears over ‘significant’ Jorginho injury
The midfielder was unable to continue soon after opening the scoring
Mikel Arteta is unsure if Thomas Partey will be fit for Arsenal’s Champions League showdown with Real Madrid on Wednesday night.
Partey scored for Arsenal during their 1-1 draw with Brentford on Saturday, but he was forced off with just over 20 minutes to go.
“We didn’t expect the issue with Thomas that we had to take him out,” said Arteta. “He felt something so we didn’t want to take any risks.
