The rumours linking Arsenal with Atletico Madrid midfielder Thomas Partey have been rife for the past few weeks.
Partey is viewed by many as one of the best in the world in his position, recently starring in Atleti’s 3-2 win versus Liverpool at Anfield.
Arsenal have expressed an interest in the Ghanaian before, but is there a realistic chance that Mikel Arteta’s side – who will likely not qualify for the Champions League – can sign him this time around?
It’s beginning to look far more likely. That’s because Partey’s father, Jacob, has confirmed that talks between his son and Arsenal have already commenced. (Text and photo courtesy Guardian)
