Immediately we got informed Thomas Partey wasn’t feeling well, we diligently asked for evidence from Arsenal. They then sent an email and added their evidence, but we were still unsure whether to believe it or not, so we asked that they send Partey over so our own medical team could run assessments to determine if he was truly sick. Maybe that was too far, but we needed to clarification as Thomas had a huge responsibility in the national team.
We got an email back from Arsenal saying that Thomas Partey feels uncomfortable traveling for that number of hours for assessment, so we should rethink our decision.
We had discussions again, and the technical team decided not to force him, because if he says he’s sick and you still force him and there is an issue, who would be blamed?
