Atletico Madrid gaffer, Diego Pablo Simeone will decide whether to include Ghanaian international Thomas Teye Partey in his plans for next season's league or ship him out to proceed on loan, Kickgh.com understands.

According to a report from Spain by as.com, the 23-year-old's future with the Los Rojiblancos outfit is still uncertain despite his impressive showing with cameo appearances in most games last season, and manager Diego Simeone will weigh his option on the youngster.

The former Ghana U-20 midfield enforcer is likely to face stiff competition for a regular team spot due to the possible arrivals of newly recruited players as his side are currently busy in the transfer market in their quest to beef up their squad.

Thomas has failed to cement a permanent place in Simeone's team setup since he was promoted to the senior rank after enjoying a superb loan spell seasons with RCD Mallorca and UD Almeria on a short term basis.

However, the Odumasi-Krobo born Child will know the faith of his future as to whether he will continue to enjoy another full league season with his parent club or will be farmed out for another loan stint with any interested club come July pre-seasons.

Getafe are believed to be keen admirers of the youngster, but their hopes of securing his services may be dented due to their demoted status.
