Saudi Arabian club Al Ahli has set their sights on Arsenal’s Thomas Partey as they continue to strengthen their squad in this transfer window. Partey remains an integral part of Arsenal’s team, but the recent arrivals of Declan Rice and Jorginho have potentially opened the door for a transfer.
Al Ahli has been active in poaching talents from Europe, having already secured deals for Roberto Firmino and Edouard Mendy. They are currently in negotiations to sign Premier League players Riyad Mahrez and Allan Saint-Maximin. According to a report from The Daily Mail, Partey is also among their list of transfer targets.
Previously, Partey was linked with a potential move to Juventus, but it appears that the Italian club’s interest has cooled off. As such, Al Ahli may have a chance to pursue the midfielder and further bolster their squad with a high-profile signing from Europe.
While Partey’s future at Arsenal remains uncertain, his potential move to Al Ahli could provide him with new opportunities and challenges in a different league. The coming weeks will reveal whether the transfer materialises.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Partey has been an important part of our squad since he moved to the club and the Ghanaian will still make an impact if he remains at the Emirates.
However, his game time might be limited now that we have Rice in the group and we probably should allow him to leave for a reasonable fee.
But if he wants to remain in European football, this bid from the Middle East will fail.

After hammering Arsenal 8 – 2 , Alex Furgeston once said “Coquuelin was completely out of his depth” in a day of shame, as the kid was thrown in at the deep end.
It took Arsenal many moons to sign a truly world class player in that position, it is for that reason fans like me cannot fathom Partey leaving.
A powerful, skillful central midfielder, a combative ball winner, Thomas Partey was the unsung hero of the most recent concluded campaign.
Bit harsh on coquelin by ferguson there, I thought he looked good early on but the team as a whole was out of it’s depth that day. I think the young fullbacks were the real issue – neither jenkinson or traore ever really made it at the top level, but coquelin proved himself a very capable midfielder later, first with us, then in Spain (villarreal?). It wasn’t a side to put out against that utd team.
I’m resigned to partey leaving now and rice effectively taking his place – I’m sure that a rice-havertz-odegaard midfield will work well for most games (and be exciting to watch), I’m less sure how well we will cope with the bigger teams. A partey-rice-odegaard(/havertz) midfield could have been immense, even in those bigger games.
In the midst of all the speculations that Partey & Balogun are likely to be shipped out this summer, I’ll rather advise that the duo be given the chance to prove themselves till the Jan window. Arteta almost prematurely sold our gem Saliba last season, if not for divine intervention. I pray such intervention reechoes this time around as well. Who says the new arrivals would all pick up form instantly? Pepe’s experience should be a lesson to us all.
I’m wondering what else does world class Partey need to prove🤔
Arteta just reiterated his desire for Partey to stay and the player’s own wish to stay. So, unless his head gets turned by the money, I’d expect the player to be with Arsenal this coming season.
I echo the same sentiment. We need to sustain the momentum from last season and one way of doing this is keep playres like Partey because we do not know how long new check-ins will take to settle. This include injuries as well.
Well said,
