Arteta sounds alarm on fitness ahead of Champions League semi-final showdown
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has hinted that Thomas Partey may not start against Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday night — citing fitness concerns after the midfielder’s long injury layoff.
Arteta warns: “We must be careful — high intensity game, tough opposition”
Partey’s training has been “good,” but match sharpness remains a question
Jorginho or Declan Rice likely to start as Arsenal aim to control midfield tempo
Partey could still feature from the bench “at any stage of the match”
With Mbappé and Vitinha threatening on the break, Arteta is choosing caution over risk as he plots a tactical masterclass to reach the final.
