With Arsenal willing to meet the release clause of Partey, the English Club are also considering pushing out some big names to meet the demands of Atletico Madrid.

Frenchmen Alexandre Lacazette and Matteo Guendouzi as well as Uruguayan Lucas Torreira who has fallen out of favor at the Club are being considered in s possible swap offer for the Ghana star.

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta and Sporting Director Edu are said to have approved the signing of the hardworking midfielder.

Partey moved to Atletico Madrid in 2013 after passing a trial with the Club and has gone on to make 125 appearances for the Club.
