Atletico madrid aiming to raise partey release clause to e100m amid talk of man utd arsenal interest
A interesting transfer rumor!
According to reports, Atlético Madrid is looking to raise the release clause of their star midfielder, Thomas Partey, to €100 million amid growing interest from Manchester United and Arsenal.
Partey, 27, has been a key player for Atlético since joining the club in 2011, making over 200 appearances and winning several titles, including the La Liga title and the UEFA Europa League. His impressive form has caught the attention of several top European clubs, including Manchester United and Arsenal.
The release clause of Partey's contract is currently set at €50 million, which is relatively low considering his quality and importance to the team. Atlético is reportedly looking to increase the clause to €100 million to deter potential suitors and ensure that they can keep hold of their star player.
Manchester United, in particular, are said to be keen on signing Partey, with Ole Gunnar Solskjær reportedly identifying him as a key target to strengthen the team's midfield. Arsenal, meanwhile, have also been linked with Partey, with Mikel Arteta looking to bolster his squad with a top-class midfielder.
It remains to be seen whether Atlético will be able to raise Partey's release clause to €100 million, but it's clear that they are determined to keep hold of their star player. Partey, meanwhile, will likely be eager to see what the future holds, with a potential move to one of Europe's top clubs potentially on the horizon.
