Los Blancos are reportedly interested in signing Atletico Madrid midfielder Thomas Partey. Ghana international has had a pretty decent season for Diego Simeone’s side so far, amassing three goals and an assist in 33 games across all tournaments.

Real Madrid are interested in signing Thomas as a backup for Casemiro. The report also claims that Ruben Neves is another footballer on their radar. Partey has also been linked to Gunners lately as the London club were willing to pay his release clause of €50m.

Los Blancos need a backup for Casemiro, and the 26-year-old midfielder would be a suitable option. However, Atleti won’t be willing to let go of the Ghanaian midfielder as he is one of their most important footballers and having spent his whole career so far with them, it seems very unlikely he would be willing to join the club’s biggest rivals.

Besides, joining the Spanish club won’t be too good for the Ghanian midfielder as it would be tough for him to find the game time there. Real Madrid have fantastic consequences in La Liga this campaign as they are in a second place in the table. La Liga giants lost the Champions League first playoff clash with Man City 1-2.

Los Blancos signed several footballers during the summer transfer window like Luka Jovic from Eintracht Frankfurt, Eden Hazard from Chelsea, Rodrygo Goes from Santos, Eder Militao from Porto, Ferland Mendy from Lyon and Alphonse Areola from PSG with a loan deal. Spanish club also added Reinier Jesus from Flameng http://www.arsenalonly.com/2020/02/arsenal-to-compete-with-spanish-giant_29.html
