Ghanaian Midfielder Thomas Partey has hinted that he wants to extend stay at Atletico Madrid.

Partey says he is hoping for smooth contract talks with the Spanish outfit.

“My agent is talking to Atletico Madrid,” he told Onda Madrid.

“Sometimes we know that we don’t always have what we want and I hope everything goes well.

“Like all the youth players developed here, all who played in the academy want to be here and they know what this club is about.”

Partey who has €50 million release clause in his contact has been linked with a move away from the Wanda Metropolitano, but insists will only leave if his services are no longer needed by the club.

“I think I am proud for having attracted the attention of other teams and this motivates me because it makes me feel that I am doing things well and improving things,” he said.
