Partey: I'm really happy at Arsenal

Thomas Partey has declared he's happy at Arsenal.

The midfielder is now inside the final 18 months of his current deal.

Partey said: “My head is always here. This is where I choose to play, I'm really happy every time I'm on the field.

“I know a lot of speculations have been going on, but for me, I'm really happy to be here and to continue playing for this club."

Partey started in last night's win against Luton.

“I feel really good," he said. “It's been a while. I've been trying to work a lot on my fitness and I've been through a lot of work. I've done all I can and I'm really happy to be back and I feel really good.

“I think everybody is working hard, we have a lot of great players. Jorginho's there, Dec [Rice] is there and I think Mo [Elneny] as well and we have a lot of players in that position.

“I think it's good to have everybody ready this time of the season and from the beginning when I tried everything I can to be available.

“At the moment I feel good, today I feel very good on the field and I think I've improved a lot on my fitness, and I'm trying my best to keep on going at this level and keep giving my best."
