There’s something really going on in the dressing room between Arteta and Partey that everybody is afraid to talk, I’m revealing it now because His departure really hurts ME”, William Saliba reveals the real SAGA behind Thomas Partey sudden departure as He send Emotional farewell message to the Ghanaian superstar

During a highly emotional press conference that has deeply impacted the Arsenal fanbase, William Saliba has finally spoken out regarding Thomas Partey’s unexpected and sudden exit from the team. Clearly affected, the French center-back shared that there had been an underlying, unspoken tension within the club — one that many players were “afraid to talk about.”

Partey’s exit, revealed without warning last week, left both supporters and teammates in shock, with the only official statement citing “mutual consent.” However, Saliba decided to confront the matter directly today, describing it as a personal and distressing situation that impacted more than just the Ghanaian midfielder — it also disrupted the squad’s unity.

> “I have to be honest today,” Saliba began. “There’s something really going on in the dressing room between Mikel (Arteta) and Thomas that nobody wanted to speak about. Maybe out of fear, maybe out of respect for the badge, but it wasn’t right. His departure hurts me personally because Thomas wasn’t just a teammate — he was a big brother to many of us.”

Although Saliba didn’t share exact details of the dispute, he alluded to long-standing miscommunication and clashes over roles within the team and dressing room hierarchy — factors that eventually distanced Partey from Arteta’s strategic vision.

> “It was painful seeing him unhappy in training sometimes,” Saliba admitted. “He deserved better after everything he gave to this club. I just hope one day the truth comes out fully, for his sake.”

As the press conference drew to a close, Saliba delivered a sincere goodbye to Partey, thanking him for his guidance and leadership during their time together.

> “Thomas, if you’re watching this, I want you to know you’ll always be my brother. You taught me so much about the game, about character, and about fighting when nobody believes in you. We’ll miss you more than words can say.”

Saliba’s words have sparked intense discussion among fans and analysts alike, with increasing demands for clarity from the club regarding the real reasons behind Partey’s sudden departure after five years at Arsenal.

At the time of writing, neither Mikel Arteta nor Arsenal’s management have responded to Saliba’s remarks. However, with pre-season approaching, questions about behind-the-scenes issues at th

e club are mounting.
