After being forced to withdraw from the Black Stars squad for this month’s 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers due to injury, Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey has returned to full training.
Head coach Charles Akonnor excused Partey due to an ankle ligament injury, and his absence hampered the Black Stars, who only managed three points out of a potential six in two games.
The Black Stars upset Ethiopia by chance in Cape Coast before being stunned by South Africa in Johannesburg, jeopardizing their World Cup hopes.
Partey was observed training with his Arsenal colleagues the day after the South Africa encounter.
Mikel Arteta is anticipated to name him in the squad for the Premier League match against Burnley this weekend.
Partey will return to the Black Stars squad for next month’s important qualifier against Zimbabwe assuming he does not sustain an injury.
In early October, the Black Stars will play The Warriors both at home and away.
