The 32-year-old was charged with five counts of rape and one count of sexual assault in July 2025 by London’s Metropolitan Police.
In September, he pleaded not guilty but has since been charged with two new counts of rape in February this year, to which he pleaded not guilty in April.
Per The Athletic, he has now been denied entry into Canada as they prepare for their opener at the BMO Field against Panama on Wednesday (June 17th).
Partey, who is part of Ghana's 26-man squad for the 2026 World Cup, has been with the Black Stars since camping began late May in Cardiff.
The former Arsenal midfielder captained the team in the pre-tournament friendly against Wales, which ended 1-1.
Ahead of the Wales game, Ghana head coach Carlos Queiroz was asked if he had concerns over the midfielder's selection. The Portuguese coach said: "If the player is here with me, my answer is clear.
"I don't have any comments about my own decisions. He is here so what are we talking about?
"This is not for me or you to make a judgement about.
"Let the events run their normal course; let the river flow and one day when the river meets the ocean we are going to find the truth."
The Canadian government website states that, “if you have committed or been convicted of a crime, you may not be allowed into Canada.” Partey has been charged but is awaiting trial and has not been convicted.
Partey continues to deny all charges.
