Thomas Partey talks

The representatives of Atletico Madrid star Thomas Partey have denied the star is in talks with Arsenal after the Ghanian’s father claimed negotiations were taking place about a transfer to the north London Club.

Partey’s father, Jacob, claimed he had spoken to his son, who confirmed to him that Arsenal were holding talks to sign the 26-year-old.

“I called my son after hearing the rumours and he told me that the rumours are true,” Jacob Partey told Tru FM’s ‘Sports World Show’. “He told me they are holding talks between him and Arsenal.”

However, his representatives have denied the suggested that talks are taking place between Atletico and Arsenal for the midfielder.

“It’s totally untrue,” JJSports, Thomas’ representatives, said about the reported Arsenal negotiations.
