Ghana star Thomas Partey signs two-year deal with Spanish outfit Villarreal

Ghana international Thomas Partey is on the verge of joining Spanish outfit Villarreal in the ongoing summer transfer window.

The 32-year-old midfielder is marking a sensational return to Spain following his departure from Premier League giants Arsenal at the expiration of his contract in June 2025, bringing an end to his five-year spell at the London-based club.

The former Atletico Madrid star has already undergone his mandatory medical and is expected to pen a two-year deal with Villarreal, keeping him at the club until summer 2027.

Partey’s quest of playing in the Champions League was deemed an important factor in the proposed move to Villarreal.

The Black Stars midfielder joined the Gunners in summer 2020 on a five-year deal, making 167 appearances and scoring nine goals across the period.

Partey made 52 appearances for the Gunners last season, scoring four goals and providing three assists across competitions, his highest by a considerable margin since his arrival at the club.

Despite initial contract renewal talks, the former Atletico Madrid star failed to reach an agreement with the Gunners over a new deal.
