• Alexander Lacazette has publicly labelled his Arsenal team-mate Thomas Partey a 'killer' after being crunched by the midfielder in training
• It is unclear whether Lacazette has a few cuts to show for the tackle or has sustained a more serious injury as a result of the former Atletico Madrid midfielder

Arsenal interim-captain Alexandre Lacazette has called out Thomas Partey for inflicting a training ground injury on him.

The Gunners are preparing to host Leicester City at the Emirates on Sunday in a English Premier League clash.

And during the team's training session on Friday at Arsenal Training Centre in London, it appears that Partey has put in a nasty challenge at some stage on Lacazette.

The French striker shared a photo on his Instagram story showing his ankle had been on a receiving end of a poor tackle.

Sports Brief earlier reported that Ghana international Thomas Teye Partey has been voted Arsenal's Player of the month for February.

The 28-year-old former Atletico Madrid midfielder has his mojo back after a topsy turvy start to his career at north London.

Partey finished with 49 per cent of the votes, edging out teammates and contenders Martin Ødegaard and Bukayo Saka, who finished in third.
