Ghanaian midfielder, Thomas Partey is keen on signing for a top club in the English Premier League according to close sources.
Top flight football has been on hold since February because of the global pandemic COVID-19 but that has not stopped clubs from making preparations for next season.
The Atletico star was close to agreeing a new deal which would have seen him extend his contract at the Wanda Metropolitano but a move to Manchester United would be too good to turn down.
Both Bayern Munich and Arsenal have the Partey on their list of players they wish to acquire and that signals a transfer war among these three clubs for his signature.
Former United defender, Rio Ferdinand indirectly told his former club to get the Ghanaian to bolster their midfield options.
Manchester United who currently lie fifth on the Premier League table will look to finish the season with a top 4 position in order to gain entry to play Champions League next season and attract star names to Old Trafford.
