Black Stars midfielder, Thomas Teye Partey completed his much-anticipated deal to English Premier League giants Arsenal on Monday night.

The Gunners, who have 13 English Premier League titles triggered Thomas Partey’s 45 million pounds buyout clause from Spanish giants, Atletico Madrid thirteen minutes before the closure of the European summer transfer window for the 2020/2021 season.

The 27-year-old who is currently with his Black Stars teammates in Turkey to prepare for Ghana’s friendly games against Mali and Qatar ended his 8 years stay with the Rojiblancos on Monday night.
