• Barcelona could look to sign Thomas Partey from Arsenal in the summer
• The Ghana midfielder has one year left on his contract with the Gunners

Barcelona are interested in Thomas Partey as the Spanish giants have reportedly made the Arsenal midfielder a top target this summer when the transfer window opens.

Arsenal could reportedly be interested in offloading the 30-year-old midfielder who has been plagued with injuries since joining the Gunners from Atletico Madrid in 2020.

Barcelona would be hoping to get Partey, who has made just 13 appearances for Arsenal this season, on a cheap price due to the player’s contract situation and their financial restrictions in Spain.
