Thomas Partey has emerged as a top target for Spanish giants Barcelona, who are reportedly planning a summer move for the midfielder as his Arsenal contract nears its end.
The Ghanaian international has been a key player for Arsenal since joining in 2020, making over 150 appearances. His experience and technical ability in the Premier League could provide Barcelona with a much-needed physical presence in midfield.
Barcelona are also facing a crucial decision regarding Frenkie de Jong’s future. The Dutch international’s contract expires at the end of the 2025/26 season, and negotiations for a renewal have stalled.
According to Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo, this lack of progress has led Barcelona to lose confidence in securing De Jong’s long-term stay. If no agreement is reached, the club is expected to prioritize selling him in the summer.
As reported by CaughtOffside, this uncertainty has prompted Barcelona to turn their attention to Partey as a potential replacement.
Partey has made 24 Premier League appearances for Arsenal this season, registering three goals and two assists.
The 31-year-old is just one goal away from surpassing his best goal-scoring tally in the competition.
