Jacob Partey, the father of Black Stars midfielder Thomas Partey, is optimistic about his son’s club, Arsenal’s chances of winning the Premier League title this season.
The Gunners, seeking their first league trophy since 2004, are currently eight points clear of defending champions Manchester City with just three losses in 28 games.
Thomas Partey, who has been a key player in Arsenal’s midfield, also hopes to win his first league title in England following his big-money move from Atletico Madrid in 2020.
His father shares the same optimism and believes that Partey and his teammates can claim the coveted trophy.
“Whatever you ask from God, you will definitely get it. So, I pray Arsenal wins the EPL this season because that is where my son plays. We leave everything to God because he has the final say but I believe God will grant us the trophy,” he told Angel TV as reported by Footballghana.
The 29-year-old is with the Black Stars preparing for the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers double-header against Angola. They will engage Angola at the Baba Yara Stadium on Thursday and then travel to Luanda for a rematch on Monday, March 27.
