Arsenal keen to pay Thomas Partey’s €50 million release clause

English Premier League giants Arsenal are aiming to activate Thomas Partey’s €50 million release clause this summer.

The 26-year-old has been an integral member of Atlético Madrid this season, contributing 3 goals in 30 games in all competitions.

He has been linked with a host of top European sides including Manchester United and Inter Milan.

Partey, whose current deal comes to an end in June 2023, has a buy-out clause of €50 million.

According to reports, Arsenal are looking to activate the aforementioned release clause in the summer.

The Gunners are said to be very serious about getting a deal done and have already approached the player's agent to start negotiations.

Partey reiterated his desire to remain at the club for a long time but could be heading the exit door should the Emirates Stadium lads manage to pay his release clause.
