Ghana Black Stars’ deputy captain Thomas Partey is expected to move to Saudi Arabia in this transfer window.

The former Arsenal and Atletico Madrid star has been a free agent since his one-year contract with La Liga club Villareal.

The embattled Ghanaian international is reportedly in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, to sign a one-year deal with Al Shabab.

Partey, according to reports, arrived on Monday morning for a routine medical checkup with the club before making the move official.

The 33-year-old sleek midfielder will be hoping to lock down more years at the club despite his ongoing legal battle in the United Kingdom.
