Manchester United and Arsenal transfer target Thomas Partey would rather remain at Atletico Madrid than seal a summer transfer.
According to Metro Sport, both Premier League clubs hold a firm interest in the 25-year-old, who has enjoyed an impressive campaign at the Wanda Metropolitano.
Metro Sport reports that Parety spoke to Cadena Cope over the weekend and admitted he has no plans to ditch Atletico this year, as he stated: “I've grown up in Atleti and I am sure I will stay here.
“I don't know of another place that will understand how I play like they do here.”
This latest news will surely come as a blow to both supporters and officials at Old Trafford and the Emirates Stadium, with both clubs on the lookout for holding midfielders.
The Red Devils are gearing up for a summer of significant change under new permanent boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, while Gunners boss Unai Emery will also be aiming to strengthen ahead of a possible return to the Champions League.
Partey certainly has the quality and experience to add a new dimension to either squad, however, it now seems he will remain loyal to Atletico for at least one more year and hone his craft further in the Spanish top flight.

Don't waste your time staying. no one will appreciate your efforts like a team ready to give you more playing opportunities. you won't get to be the best midfielder at athletico Madrid, because they need to groom the Spanish players.. move on Partey.. move on before you regret..
You are right

Only good thing about being an Atleti fan is when Thomas Partey is not on the field you can say no Partey no party, everything else is trash

He is so underrated. Has Someone instilled work ethic and has an offensive game that I feel Someone sometimes inhibits.

Honestly.. would take any of Atleti's midfielders in a heartbeat. Saul, Partey, Rodri are all quality.
