Arsenal star Thomas Partey was left furious after being clattered by youngster Tom Akinola in training, according to reports from The Sun

The Ghanaian has been plagued by injuries since joining the Gunners from Atletico Madrid in 2020. He most recently missed four games earlier this term due to an ankle injury sustained against Chelsea in pre-season.

So when eager Akinola flew into a 50-50 tackle with Partey in training, the 28-year-old was less than enthused. Football.London claim that he initially reacted angrily towards the youngster, who was participating in first-team practice. But he later softened towards the former Huddersfield academy midfielder, even offering up a few kind words.

Partey is claimed to have told Akinola that he is the 'strongest' player he'd played with.
