The La Liga – like many other leagues around the world – was suspended in March following the Coronavirus pandemic but football resumed in the European country in the mid-week and on Sunday the Ghana midfielder – heavily linked to Arsenal – will experience competitive football for the first time since the break.
Partey plays in a midfield four made of Koke, Marcos Llorente, and Saul Niguez .
