Partey, who is 30 years old, is in his fourth year at Arsenal after transferring from Atletico Madrid in 2020. With only one year remaining on his contract with Arsenal, Partey will be entering the last year of his deal when the new season starts.
Reports from Spanish journalist Adrian Sanchez, published by The Sun, suggest that Barcelona is eager to sign Partey at a reasonable price this summer.
Due to financial constraints, Barcelona is looking for cost-effective signings, making Partey a top choice for them. Having been sidelined by injuries for most of the season and only returning to fitness in March, Partey requested to be left out of Ghana’s friendly matches against Nigeria and Uganda.

Despite a limited number of appearances this season, Partey has started in Arsenal’s recent games against Chelsea and Tottenham. Partey has also addressed rumors about his departure from Arsenal, expressing his contentment and commitment to the club.
He shared with Football London that he is happy playing for Arsenal, despite the ongoing speculation about his future. He emphasized his joy and intention to continue with the team.
Last year, Partey was considered for moves to various clubs and there was talk of a possible transfer to Saudi Arabia. Nonetheless, Arsenal’s manager, Arteta, has frequently spoken about Partey’s vital role in the team.
