Thomas Partey could become one of the big names of the summer in a Premier League aware that he will not be able to throw as much of a checkbook as in previous years. The Ghanaian, who has a most desirable termination clause – just 50 million euros -, would not be considering, in theory, an exit from Atlético de Madrid, but it all depends on the effort made by the mattress club to retain him in his offer of renewal and siren songs arriving from England.
That is why the player's father did not hesitate to leave the door ajar for a possible exit, although, as his words reveal, the last word will always be his. “Atlético de Madrid has put a termination clause in my son's contract… so any team that has an interest in it simply has to meet those requirements”Jacob Partey explained in SilverFM. “Any club that satisfies that will be able to sign my son, it doesn't have to be specifically Arsenal. My son is old enough to decide about any possible transfer and I am going to show him my support whatever that decision is. ”
The economic crisis of the coronavirus will cause, during the next summer market, that names like Thomas', which also have such an accessible termination clause, will become priority targets. At the moment in the British press they already point out that Arsenal, Manchester City, Manchester United and Liverpool They are considering testing the player to find out his disposition for a possible transfer to the islands.
While, Thomas, who currently charges around 2.5 million euros, is waiting for a call from the offices of the Wanda Metropolitano for an improvement in his contract that, until recently, seemed to be close to 4.5 million euros per season. That new contract could link Thomas to the mattresses until 2025 and now put a clause that would exceed 100 million euros.
