Saudi Arabian clubs have reportedly rekindled their interest in Black Stars midfielder Thomas Partey.
According to Football Insider, Partey, together with his Arsenal teammate Gabriel Jesus, have drawn strong interest from Saudi Pro League clubs.
Partey was on the radar of some Saudi clubs last summer, but the Ghanaian declined any potential transfer to focus on Arsenal.
The clubs that reportedly approached the former Atletico Madrid player included Al Ahli, Al Nassr, and Al Khaleej.
Thomas Partey, whose future at Arsenal is uncertain, is also being monitored by Barcelona as the Spanish side aims to sign a defensive midfielder in the 2024 summer transfer window.
Partey was on Barcelona's list during the 2024 January transfer window, but the Catalan side failed to express concrete interest in the Ghanaian.
A report filed by Catalan journalist Adrian Sanchez suggests Partey has been shortlisted again by Barcelona for a possible transfer in the summer.
Arsenal is reportedly open to letting go of the former Atletico Madrid man for a fee between £20 to £25 million.
