Partey is just what Arsenal needed’ – Former Ghana boss Grant backing £45m midfielder to shine


 A man who worked with the ex-Atletico Madrid star at international level believes a seamless transition will be made to English football

Arsenal have been told that Thomas Partey is “just what they needed”, with former Ghana coach Avram Grant backing a midfielder he knows well to thrive in English football.


The Gunners left it late before pushing through a £45 million ($58m) deal for a player that has long been linked with a switch to Emirates Stadium.


Mikel Arteta finally got his man with the summer deadline approaching, with the decision taken to activate the release clause in a 27-year-old’s contract at Atletico Madrid.
