Expert Reveals Why Thomas Partey Gets Injured So Frequently

Arsenal’s injury troubles with Thomas Partey is raising some serious concerns.

After a long drawn out transfer saga, the Gunners finally signed him from Atletico Madrid last summer.

He arrived at the Emirates carrying an injury and has dropped in and out of the line up ever since. He has not played three games consecutively since his £45m switch on deadline day.

Medical expert, Dr. Rajpal Brar was asked, “Partey has had a difficult run with injuries this season. Why do you think he’s been so susceptible to injuries this season?”

He replied, “Multiple factors at play here. First, we have the shortened turnaround to this season which means less recovery time.

“Secondly, a player transitioning to a new team and likely trying to make a good impression resulting in higher exertion & intensity. Thirdly, the player transitioning to a higher intensity league.

“Fourthly, once he picks up the first injury, now there’s inherent risk for re-injury and fluctuating fitness levels which then increase that risk even further.”

Arsenal are struggling with the fitness of Kieran Tierney. Both him and Partey have proven to be key to this Gunners side. For them to miss so many crucial games is not ideal and will need to change in the future.
