Thomas Partey will be “really happy” to see his former Arsenal team-mates when Ghana face England in their World Cup meeting on Tuesday.
The former Gunners midfielder is available for Ghana after missing Wednesday’s 1-0 win over Panama in Toronto.
Partey was denied entry to Canada having been charged with seven counts of rape and one count of sexual assault in London between 2020 and 2022. Partey has denied all the charges and will attempt to clear his name at a trial next summer.
Ghana return to Group L action in Foxborough on Tuesday against an England side which includes Partey’s former Arsenal team-mates Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice.
Partey told media in footage posted on TV3 Ghana’s X account: “I’m really happy to see them again. I hope they’re going to bring their best and try to give us the opportunity to play against the best and try to compete and enjoy the game.”
Ghana are second in Group L going into Tuesday’s match and will face Croatia in their final group game on Saturday.
Partey added: “It’s not about personal achievement. We are going to play a game of football.
“We are 11 players, we are a team. We have to play as a team. Individually if I can get my best game I will be happy, but at the end of the day it’s the whole team that needs to be at the top level to be able to achieve what you want to achieve.”
