The Ghanaian midfielder spares Rice and Ødegaard but publicly slams Nketiah in brutally honest press conference—squad tensions boiling over.
Thomas Partey has dropped a bombshell following Arsenal’s Champions League heartbreak at the hands of PSG. In a rare show of public criticism, Partey pointed fingers at Eddie Nketiah, declaring the striker had let the team down when it mattered most. While fans expected fingers to point at Rice or Ødegaard after the tough loss, Partey shocked the press by clearing both and instead naming Nketiah as the weak link.
His words were razor-sharp:
> “This was supposed to be his big moment… Maybe he should consider a move to Saudi Arabia.”
The bluntness of the comment has ignited debate among pundits and fans alike, raising serious concerns about unity in the Arsenal dressing room. Nketiah’s underwhelming performance against PSG, combined with this public dressing down, has now fueled transfer rumors—many believing his Emirates days may be numbered.
Arteta attempted to cool tensions with his “we win together, we lose together” mantra, but it’s clear fractures are beginning to show as Arsenal’s season unravels.
