next club odds: Arsenal star likely to be next Saudi mover, Juventus and Bayern trail
ARSENAL are bracing themselves for offers for midfielder Thomas Partey.
And Ladbrokes reckon the 30-year-old could follow many of Europe's top stars and head for Saudi Arabia.
That's because they price a move to the mega rich state at just 6/4 this summer.
It might not be as simple as that, however, with Juventus not far behind in the betting market at 2/1.
It's then out to double figures to find third placed Bayern Munich at 10/1.
Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain round off the betting at 14s and 25/1, respectively.
Arsenal appear to be gearing up for life after Partey, with Declan Rice's imminent big money move.
Jorginho's arrival midway through last season prompted Partey to lose out on game time and with Rice and captain Martin Odegaard in the middle, that looks set to be the Gunners midfield three.
Partey was a mainstay in the Arsenal side for the majority of the campaign before a slight dip towards its conclusion.
But it was still 33 Premier League appearances for the Ghana international, who now looks set to follow fellow midfield stalwart Granit Xhaka out the exit door.
Arsenal are understood to be keen to sell - but only for the right price.
That could mean a Saudi switch is on the cards for Partey, though reports claimed recently that he'd prefer a move to Juve over the gulf state.
Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: "It looks like Arsenal are already preparing for life after Partey, with the latest odds suggesting a mega-money move from a Saudi club is imminent."
