This rumour about Thomas Partey to Arsenal really isn’t going away.

According to Ghana Soccernet, the Atletico Madrid midfielder would prefer to join the Gunners over Paris Saint-Germain.

Partey has been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal in recent months and now his Ghana team-mate has weighed in on the subject.

Kasim Nuhu, who also bunks with the £45 million-rated [Telegraph] star on international duty, encouraged his friend to join the Emirates Stadium club during an Instagram Q & A.

And here’s how Arsenal fans reacted to Nuhu’s comments on Twitter.

Yes, the rumour about Partey definitely isn’t going anywhere, but it still doesn’t make a great deal of sense.

As mentioned, Atletico want a staggering £45 million for him, a massive transfer fee in this climate, and there’s just no way Arsenal – who have no Champions League revenue to bank on – will be able to afford him.
