Arsenal defender Sokratis appears to have cheekily fuelled talk that the Gunners will move for Atletico Madrid midfielder Thomas Partey this summer.
During football's downtime, Premier League stars have been keeping themselves amused with live Q&A sessions on Instagram and transfer business has inevitably been a constant theme in the chats.
Similarly to what Jadon Sancho recently did when asked about a proposed move to Manchester United, Sokratis appeared to indulge Arsenal fans eager for good news on their interest in Partey.
Asked during an Instagram Live session to "smile if we're signing Partey", the defender slapped on a huge grin for the camera.
26-year-old Partey has been one of the standout players for Diego Simeone's side in the 2019/20 season and the Gunners are thought to be ready to pay his €50million (£44m) release clause.
On Wednesday, Partey's father Jacob was quoted as telling Tru FM that his son had entered talks with the Gunners.
However, the player's representatives, JJSports, said of the reported negotiations: "It's totally untrue."

These five signings can turn Arsenal into champions. There would be a strong bench with likes of Saka, Martinelli, Xhaka, Saliba. With income from player sales + additional transfer kitty of £160, these signings are possible. Fellow fans, what do you think about this?

Parlor and Keown in Invisible squad? Wake up please. It’s only A. Cole and Campbell that we’re in the squad others are foreigners. Can still remembered that we played against Parlor Middlesbrough that season. How many English players are starting for Liverpool or Man City to make them compete? If they have up to 4 or 5 in their squad then I will support your motion but until then I’m against it
Did you check it

He joined them in 2004 after winning league with Arsenal.. So the new season starts again in 2004-2005... he played for Middlesbrough till 2007..

We need mixture of 4-5 british and 6-7 foreign players for Arsenal to compete again .... Look what happened against OLYMPIACOS... embarrassing.. 1 british player, we showed no bottle or heart... All our successful years were a mixture, then Wenger ruined it with cheap foreign imports....
Simple way to put it... season finished in may2004 .. Then restarts again in 2004 going into season 2004-2005 that’s. When he joined borough, till 2007

I agree with the British aspect. It probably isn't true but it feels like foreign footballers play more for themselves than the team. that's why over the transfer period I was begging for Arsenal to at least show an interest in somebody like Lewis Dunk or Shane Duffy. they play like their lives depend, they don't care who you are, if you're slacking they'll say it to your face. Arsenal need a handful of players with big balls and I see nobody in that team with medium sized ones.
Well said I agree
