The 33-year-old Ghanaian midfielder joined Villarreal last summer on a one-year deal with an extension option, playing 32 times as they earned their best La Liga finish in 13 years and a Champions League spot. Villarreal opted against the extension, leaving Partey clubless when his contract ends June 30, with no official reason given though his ongoing UK rape and sexual assault charges—trial set for June 2027—likely factored in alongside his age. Partey, Ghana's vice-captain, misses today's World Cup opener against Panama due to a failed visa appeal tied to those proceedings, but holds a US visa for later group games against England and Croatia.
