Thomas Partey has officially been unveiled at the Arsenal Football Club!
Our new transfer from Atletico Madrid took photos, did interviews and met fellow players and staff at the London Colney facility this morning.
Thomas told Arsenal.com, “I was so happy, I was excited. I was not even here yet and the fans were crazy over me, they wanted me to join the club. I received a lot of messages saying, ‘Join the club or we are not sleeping!’ It was a great feeling. This is so good, so nice, so great!”
Thomas will wear the number 18, and “Thomas” will be printed on the back of his jersey because he feels this is more familiar to football fans.
Now, the work begins to blend Thomas into Mikel Arteta’s squad, and to help him thrive as an Arsenal player for years to come.
Thomas has told Mikel Arteta he will be ready to play this weekend if needed.
Let’s hope we get a preview on Saturday!
COYG!
