Serie A clubs Inter Milan and AS Roma have joined Arsenal and Manchester City in the race to sign Atletico Madrid midfielder Thomas Partey.
Partey has a €50 million buy out clause in his current contract, which will have to be met by any potential suitors if he is to leave Spain this summer.
Man City certainly have the financial clout to pull off such a deal, but Arsenal have struggled in the market in recent times, most notably being restricted to loan signings during the January window.
Partey is tied to Atletico until 2023 and Simeone is still hopeful he will remain at the club for the foreseeable future, but his resolve could be tested if a formal bid is launched when the market reopens.
