Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey has hinted on his personal Twitter account that he could make his return from injury "soon".
The 28-year-old has been sidelined for the Gunners since limping off with a thigh injury in the 3-0 defeat at Crystal Palace at the beginning of April.
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta had recently suggested that the Ghanaian's involvement this season was over as a result of the injury, before suggesting in recent days that his midfielder was progressing well in his recovery.
Following Arsenal's 2-1 win at West Ham United on Sunday, the North London club posted a video of Gabriel's goal scored at the London Stadium on its official Twitter account.
Partey then responded to the tweet on Monday with: "Tom X Tom soon," with this possibly suggesting a link up with Arsenal full-back Takehiro Tomiyasu again in the coming weeks.
Should Partey have made a quicker recovery than expected, he could feature in Arsenal's next game against Leeds United at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, with the Gunners leading Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United in the race for the Premier League top four as things stand.
The former Atletico Madrid midfielder faces competition for his place in the starting lineup however, with Mohamed Elneny impressing in his place alongside Granit Xhaka at the base of the midfield.
