Transfer News: Arsenal advised to pay full asking price for Atletico Madrid star
Arsenal advised to pay full asking price for Atletico Madrid star
Atletico Madrid have allegedly emphasized that they won’t sell Thomas Partey except if Arsenal trigger his £45.5m release clause.
The 27-year-old is accepted to be one of three attacking players Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is focusing on this summer, alongside prospective free agent Willian and Barcelona playmaker Philippe Coutinho.
The Gunners opened talks with Thomas Partey not long ago, as affirmed by his dad, however any expectations of signing the Ghana international on a cut-price move have been rejected by Atletico Madrid.
Fabrizio Romano claims that Thomas Partey won’t be going anywhere this summer except if interested clubs met his full valuation.
Atletico Madrid are as far as anyone knows also reluctant to listen to any alternative offers, including a potential player-plus-cash deal including Matteo Guendouzi.
Should they fail to agree with Aletico Madrid, Arsenal could rather go to Roma midfielder Amadou Diawara.
