The former Atletico Madrid star sprained his ankle, and after a series of test by the English giants, Arsenal, it has been confirmed he will be out for three weeks.
"Right ankle. Thomas sustained an injury to ligaments in his right ankle during the friendly match against Chelsea last Sunday. Thomas continues to be assessed and is expected to be back in training in approximately three weeks," wrote Arsenal on their official website.
Thomas Partey is key to manager Mikel Arteta's plans and will be hoping the midfielder returns fully fit and stays injury free for the upcoming season.
