"We don’t know. It’s what happens - it’s part of football. There are no excuses. I think Jorgi played a really good game and we’ll have to assess Thomas to see how bad it is," said Arteta.
"Very late, very, very late," added Arteta on when they found out about Partey's injury.
The 29-year-old is likely to miss the trip to Aston Villa on Saturday.
